Bush -- Still Driving Democrats Wacky

A new survey shows the President's popularity unscathed despite a barrage of artillery and cannon fire over corporate sleaze from tooth-and-nail opponents and the media.
Both on his handling of the War and his job overall, the President draws a chorus of thunderous applause and praise from Americans still buoyed up about him and unvexed despite the tawdry sludge, the daily muck and filth being flung at him by draggled-tailed harlots in the media.
Viva Bush!, Americans cry out, much to the bitter chagrin of fille de joie hussies at CNN.
For Bush's scowling, froth-at-the-mouth, stink-in-the-nostrils arch-foes, who see him as the Prince of Darkness incarnate, a demon in human form, cloven feet and all, the latest CBS/New York Times poll is a bitter, poison pill to swallow, indeed.
Despite the media crusade to crucify the President on the cross of corporate scandal, a whopping 74% of Americans approve of Bush's job performance, which, adding insult to injury, is actually up 4% points from their previous, June poll, when Dan Rather, renowned liar and bell boy for Hillary Clinton, flushed triumphant at Bush's then 7%-point 'drop' from their May survey.
Yes, you heard it right, folks: Bush is even more widely admired and liked after weeks of full-tilt, red-hot cannonade from assailants who thought they'd found the silver bullet.
You could hear the shrieks of agony, the wails of woe and gnashing of teeth at DNC Central, as Terry McAuliff, whimpering and mewling, dons sackcloth and ashes.
Rankled that his hate campaign has come-a-cropper, little Terry, exacerbated, embittered, rends the air at the top of his lungs: 'How in [expletive] could Smirk be more popular after Harken, WorldCom, Enron, Global Crossing, Qwest?! It makes no sense whatsoever! What the heck is going on?!! Don't people believe Tom Brokaw or Peter Jennings anymore?! They say Bush is a crook, so why don't the sheeple fall in line?'
Approval of Bush's handling of the economy, despite the blues on Wall Street, remains steady, at 56%, unchanged from a month ago. Indeed, a majority of Americans rate the condition of the economy as 'fairly good', a minuscule 12% rate it 'very bad'.
Asked whether they think the "stock market will go up or down" in the "next year or so", a staggering 60% said yes, up from only 49% last August. Only 26% are bearish, which is down 8% points from last summer.
Regarding the President personally, asked if they "trust George W. Bush to do the right thing when it comes to regulating business to prevent ... abuses from taking place," a sky-high 59% say they trust him, only 34% disagree.
Democrats must be up in arms tonight.
The new poll numbers underscore the difficulty for hatemongers like McAuliff in their belligerent appeal to arms, their kindle-the-torch-of-war crusade to arouse hatred towards a President, not only wildly popular, but highly esteemed, highly regarded, whose plain, down-home, down-to-earth humility has roused the favor of folks from all walks of life.
President Bush connects with Americans, his rapport with the people transcends party, race, ethnicity, gender -- even religion. The chemistry is real, the esprit de corps bond is honest-to-goodness. Despite the media/Democrat campaign to batter the President to pieces, to stir up dissension, to sow divisions in the camp, the public today is more resolved, more determined than ever to win the War on Terror.
Given their failure, will the media beat a retreat, bite the dust and draw in their horns?
With elections just around the corner, not likely.
But, from these polls, one thing has grown abundantly clear: The media's ability to bring down a President is vastly over-rated.
Anyway, that's...
My two cents...
