Yet another fake poll from Newsweak to taint their debate coverage and help their hate-the-troops news division.

Rasmussen Poll has Bush's Job Approval at 40%.

Newsweak just engineered a poll to lower his Job Approval to 28%.

If the MSM can’t slant something enough to make GWB look bad, they won’t report it. They have no credibility with anyone but the whacked out left.

And at leasst half of the posters on FR!

The newsweAk poll would not come up for me.

Rasmussen:
For the month of May, 2007, those target are 37.2% Democrat, 31.4% Republican, and 32.4% Unaffiliated. In April, 2007, those targets were 37.5% Democrat, 31.8% Republican, and 30.5% Unaffiliated.

Anyone else running verrrrry slow?

Newsweek is not the most credible source out there. Rasmussen Reports is more believeable.

Hate to break this to you, but I think the 28% is high. I talk politics with people all the time, and every single one of them hates Bush now. A majority of the people I talk to voted for him in 2004, but there isn’t a single one who would support him now. If it isn’t the war (and some dislike him because he hasn’t tried hard enough on that), it’s immigration, gas prices, or corruption. It’s not like I am talking to the Move-On types, either. These are people who are all either R’s or Independents, who live in areas that voted 65$ % for Bush. My own precinct was over 70% for Bush, and it was real ugly going door-to-door last fall.

It’s not 28%.

Please don’t use personal hyperbole to justify the fake poll of two news organization that engineered it to hurt America and our troops.

Excepting the period right after 9/11, we can disregard 50% of most any poll about the President. At least 50% of the people are ruled by emotion and the leftist hive mentality that hates the President.

Take into account the types of poll conducted by Newsweek, et al, and you could probably disregard 75% of it.

What in the world caused the media to be filled with leftists? I wonder if it’s the savior mentality that some see of the reporter field. The left leaning do seem to favor discussing problems instead of actually fixing them. They believe they can affect change not by actually getting their hands dirty, but by forcing others to do so by writing about the problems.

It sounds like these supposed “Bush voters”, who really, really “hate” him now because of gas prices for which he has nothing to do with, his “corruption” (???), and consider "winners" the Islamic cultists who blow up women and children in Iraq, are inflicted with BDS, therefore useless.

Very undependable voters I’d say, easy prey for pandering, consprazoids, and dependent on government.

Good thing they aren’t Republicans.

They (Newsweek) don’t give their methodology. Without their methodology the poll is worthless — except for duping morons.

Leftists are more susceptible to propaganda I guess, and they indoctrinate easily somehow.

Maybe since they hate real work, most become journalists?

This is another good reminder that polls should not be taken seriously.
