Why Do They Poll For Decisiveness And Not Competence?

[DrFunkenstein]

Of course Bush is more decisive - he takes one wrong decision and sticks with it until there is a record deficit or 1000 soldiers die.

This question seems inherently biased towards Bush's simplicity - which wouldn't be so bad if he didn't have a team of evil smarty pants exploiting his love of tough talk.

But, personally, I would much rather have them ask who would do a more competent job as President. Because, frankly, I can't think of anyone doing a more incompetent job than Bush on ANYTHING (except screwing up).

Who do I have to kill to get this changed?



Bush: Decidedly wrong.

1. You're right...

a two-year-old who has taken off like a shot to chase a ball into the street is acting decisively, but definitely not competently!

2. Heh! Good one!

3. Kerry Should Say That In The Debates!

Nicely put!

4. Really

In fact, it describes Bush to a T, and decimates his claims that by acting decisively he's doing the country any favors.

Instead, he's dragging into the middle of deadly high-speed traffic.

5. Unfortunately, the Sheeple favor a fear based liar. Obviously

the American people have not taken their heads out of the hole yet. Denial is a powerful force and the BFEE know this. They are running the best Dopefeen campaign ever.
Now for Kerry and all DUers democrats etc. It's time to exploit it back. The Kerry camp needs to call the BFEE, the Admin of Greed. They need to expose these fuckers and do it daily. Quite frankly, I'm totally shocked that they went soft and positive for so long. It works great so long as your opponent plays the same game. Not so any more.
The GOP stands for the Greed Over Policy. And Bush is at the top of that heep of Greed. Kerry needs ads to wack Bush on Enron, wack him on lying to the middle class about tax breaks when their taxes actually went up (see GAO report). Wack him on his failed Iraq policies. Turn the flip flop on George, Gay Rights, Compassion back door draft. He needs to say "George likes to lie about my voting record, because he has no voting record, he has no experience in voting period. He is a reckless spender and a deceiver of the American people. His Saudi interests far out way our American interests. etc, etc, etc.
