Is Bush 'Slipping" the Noose or Is It Tightening??
Edited on Wed Jul-23-03 06:33 PM by Starpass
What's your take........I have my good moments and my bad........... You know the "drill"; you know the stuff that's been happening in the news over the past couple weeks as he is under attack and you know about "the two-bros BBQ'd in Iraq" and Clinton kissing the Don's ring. The good news/the bad news. Seriously, right at this moment, which way is this goddamn dizzy whirlpool swirling????---and (from a true check of your brain and your gut), will the whirlpool ever finally suck Bush from office in '04??????

1. As long as we have troops getting killed.. it'll keep tightening
this big so called victory over the evil brother will mean nothing if more of our own die

are probably about 30%. Sorry. JMHO.

3. I'd say their closer to 40 percent at this point
Starpass, I was kind of worried that the sons' killings might sweep Nigergate away but I'm not worried now.

4. StopThief---actually the odds of him "going" in '04
..are dependent on like 30% of the voters!!---you know the flakes who kind of float around and vote for whomever's commercial trips their trigger right before they go out to vote!! About 33% will definitely vote Dem; about 33% will definitely vote Repuke. It's those 30% who basically don't know their ass from a hole in the ground that need to be charmed up to the voting booth curtain. (p.s.---in the 33% for Dem/Repuke respectively, I include many who claim to be "independent" but will lean in certain direction).

5. Slipping
I'm convinced that the average 'mrkin likes to see ass-kicking done to brown people. When actually faced with a lever to pull in 2004 I have no doubt that the vast majority of these fine upstanding patriotic turds will remember all the ass-kicking and all the killing and all the shock and awe and the lack of blow-jobs in the WH and enthusiastically pull that lever for Bush.

I REFUSE to have hope until there is something MORE than wishful thinking on which to pin it. I'll have HOPE when there's mass demonstrations on a continuing basis and Bush's poll numbers are in the 40s. Until then the sheeple are still in his corner.

The citizenry is for shit. They are incurious, evil assholes.

6. I would feel much better if Chaney's Energy task Force and 911 had
some dots connected. But then again, if knew the "real truth:....could we handle it?

7. Methinks a better analogy would be attack by piranhas. . .
Instead of one great white shark, * has to contend with several dozen piranhas.

Nibble, nibble, nibble.
Drip, drip, drip.

Death of a Thousand Cuts.

8. Several weeks ago on "The Guy James Show", John Dean
Said that this would not be overwith in a few days or few weeks. He said if it was going to happen it would take many weeks or months to completely play out. Just like Watergate was a drip...drip...drip...
