Two-thirds of all respondents, and slightly more than half of Republicans, said business interests had too much influence on the Republican Party.
I think it says a great deal, that after the assault Bush and Cheney have sustained from the liberals and left-wing radical media, only 2/3 believe this. These assaults are TOTALLY without foundation, yet they continue.
Accounting professionals, who understand the concepts involved (and pretty much are the ONLY people who understand the issues) do not believe there are problems in either of these cases. To me, however, it is obvious that the McAuliffe situation involved some kind of quid pro quo, yet it gets no attention from the left-wing radical media.
It is sad that the liberals continue to practice the politics of personal destruction. They cannot win on the issues, so they use lies and innuendo in their efforts to accomplish their ends. Fortunately, I think the American public wised up to it after the Clinton impeachment, and realize you have to have people of character running the country.
Asked specifically whether they thought Mr. Cheney had done anything unethical while running Halliburton, 23 percent said yes and 32 percent said no.
You have 23% extremist liberals (like, well, you) who would accuse Cheney regardless of the facts. You have 32% who fully understand the facts, then you have a whopping 48% who simply don't know WHAT to think. That the liberals would lie and mislead these 48% is sad, sickening, but typical. |
