53% approval rating?? Really?

I must travel in a different circle. If I poll most of the people I hang with in meatspace, I think it's closer to 20%.

Time for a Scottobear nosy poll of the day, just to get a cybersense.

ok I just want to say that I'm sorry that my response to the "what do you like most" question seems a little harsh. This is not meant to say that everyone is this way, but I have have run into so many people who say "Bush is a moron" or "Bush is a wimp." But when you ask them to give you factual reasons that have influenced their opinion, they can't give you any. Then when you ask them if they bothered to vote in the last election, more times than not the answer is "no." So I just get a little tired of hearing people bash him without really having a reason to, especially when they didn't even vote. Once again, I do not mean to say that anyone who answered these questions is that way. Its just that I had to vent, I guess. thanks :)

No worries! Feedom of opinion! :)

I agree, lack of voting in my mind means you revoke your right to complain.

Let's see, is the "right" to complain (which I believe falls under that whole first amendment thing) worth rushing off to the voting booth to support a system of government that I don't agree with in the first place? Nah. I'll stick with George Carlin's take on the matter.
