WTF is wrong with "We The People.." anymore? I'm getting a little concerned. Yes, I know that 08 is just around the corner, and thank God that we're going to have a new president... but look at these numbers;

Polls for registered voters in the US

Question: Would you say that the country is heading off on the wrong track?

Democrats: 88% Yes - The country is going off the wrong tracks
Republicans: 66% Yes - The country is going off the wrong tracks


Question: Do you believe that President Bush is doing his job?

Combined Republicans and Democrats - 70% say he is NOT doing his job


Question: Do you believe that congress is handling their job well?

Combined Voters - 81% say No, they are not doing their job.


Okay, so let's just go with the lower number of 70%. 70% of Americans say the Bush isn't doing his job. Well, wtf.... why do we have to keep him. Why don't the people get what they want. Ohh yes, that's right because we know nothing, and can't see the "real" direction the country is heading.

I'm so upset with some things right now, but I'm just a little guy in the great big world. FAWK

Chill bro...you'll give yourself tumors and shit... Very Happy

We're all just little sitting ducks in a big fucking pond. Kind of keeps things in perspective though, doesn't it?

Maybe everyone thinks the country is heading off the tracks because no one really agrees with either party?

According to the poll:
Republican president has 70% negative rating
Democrat Congress has 81% negative rating

Or no one really has a clue what track this country should be on in the first place. Smile

Or perhaps its that there is no real difference between either party and they just cater to the uber rich,and corporations while shitting on the rest of us.

Of course, most americans are just fine with that as long as they can have their reality tv, grande latte and mcdonalds.

Bread and circuses...

According to the stats that you posted the larger problem is with the democratic congress, yet you want to get rid of the president? Lets also note that same congress wants to work 4 days a week instead of 5.

I see the larger problem is actually both parties are so caught up in their own bullshit they can't see past their own piles of money.

ok lets be honest we vote for leaders that promise us all money and happy lives. When we are still here living month to month and the TV says America is the most obeise, least healthy, dumbest, and biggest bullies you feel less good, since the politicias campain on feel good and you still feel the same people lose. If we remembered the the #1 job of the government is protection of it's own people and started with the basic of running a country rather than feel good hot topics then we'd go further.

Leaders are fewer than followers, this is natural and is a good thing as one group needs few leader but many members. Right now look at how retards like brittany and paris hilton are idolized. Why cause TV is our leader and says they are important. We need to know who we want to lead us and why and then not let things like 2 party system and political correctness prevent us from making changes. Seriously though at work I'd say all but 2 or 3 would even be willing to vote outside the 2 party even if they thought the guy not in the main 2 was the best leader he'd seen, why cause he is under the idea that if you do not vote for one of the main parties you mean nothing. but if every just plain voted for who they thought was best it'd be better.

Also there should be a money limit. Lets face it even in the big parties sometimes they have multiple quality people they narrow it dows so that all the $$$$ can go to pimping one guy, cause money = TV time and TV = control.

in the end I say......
Ron Paul for prez!!!!!
