Wolf Blitzer announces: President Bush's poll numbers rising!
What a jerk and what a joke! God these Media Bush-suckers never quit! :grr:

Wolfie breathlessly said: "Could President Bush's poll numbers be on the rise? A new CNN poll shows his approval rating to have risen to 34%." He points out that in this new "CNN" (only) poll (glaringly minus the Gallup part) that Bush's approval ratings have risen by TWO whole points. Oh boy, oh joy, Leslie!

I knew I had earlier seen today that a Gallup poll had him at 31% approval... an all-time new LOW! Sure enough, it is the USA Today/Gallup poll just out today:

http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2006-05-08-bush-approval_x.htm

Whatever happened to CNN and Gallup's affiliation... until today they were joined at the hip? He did not even mention the USA Today/Gallup poll. How obvious can this Bushbot be? How transparent, Mr. Biltzer? Shame on you CNN for your extremely "selective" reporting. :spank:

2. Gallup dropped CNN last month because of their low ratings.
CNN uses Opinion Research now.

9. Opinion Research needs to do a bit more research
to find the right "opinions". Surely they can fluff * better than that?

3. Spinning 101
Its an increase, even if its within the poll's margin of error and even if its only one poll, its still an increase.

4. Funny MSNBC had him down to 31%
From the Gallup poll.

He has done nothing that would have risen his approval ratings.
Pure B.S. ... Uncle Karl R. has been busy.

7. *'s poll numbers could rise by ten percent tomorrow
and he'd still be the number one piece of shit president in American history.

I don't need polls to know he's an atrocious president; I know he's an atrocious president because I feel it in my gut, and because there's a strange clicking noise every time I use the phone. OK, gotta go, the federal agent at my door just said to hurry up.
