Congress Rating Plunges!

Congress Ratings Plunge in Gallup Poll

Congressional approval ratings have sunk to their lowest point in three decades according to latest Gallup Poll!
According to the poll, 14% approve of the job Congress is doing. That's HALF Bush's 28% job approval.
The political analysts blame the economy, the Democratic leaders blame Bush...
None of them even mention the main reason: The Democrats have FAILED to stand up the the most unpopular President in modern history! They failed to stop the war, they failed to impeach Bush and Cheney or even hold them accountable for their crimes: illegal war, war crimes, illegal torture, wiretapping, abuses of the judicial system for political gain, outing CIA agent Valerie Plame etc. etc. etc.
The Democratic Party is pathetic! Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi should step down or be replaced!

Dems Cave to Bush on Spending Bill

Bush has a 35% approval rating, and the Dems Cave to Bush on Spending Bill? Bush gets almost everything he wants? More funds for the war, no timetables, etc. etc...

Pelosi and Reid need to quit now! The Democratic Party needs new, stronger leadership!

Dems Cave on Iraq War (Again!)

Oh Dear, not again!
Democrats Cave on War Funding I know, the Dems don't have enough votes to overcome filibuster theats from Republicans, but couldn't they at least put up a fight and MAKE the Repubs actually filibuster (i.e. stay in the senate and hold up legislation) so the American people can see who is actually blocking progress in the Senate? Instead, Democrats are in Disaray! Great "leadership" Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi!

Wiretapping, torture, illegal military occupation, dropping the hate crime bill, and now this...
Are the Democrats TRYING to force progressives to leave and join the Green Party?!

Democrats in Peril: 75% Disapprove of Congress

According to this CNN/Opinion Research Poll, 75 percent of the American people disapprove of Congress, only 22 percent approve, even worse than Bush's approval rating. Although twice as many approve of Democrats in Congress (43%), 51% disapprove of them as well. Wonder Why? Continued funding of the Iraq occupation, caving in to Bush on domestic wiretapping, etc. etc.
Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid are turning out to be weak and timid "leaders", as I predicted. Why can't the Democrats choose strong leaders who will stand up to Bush and the GOP and defend the majority of the people who elected them? We need a progressive/Democratic version of Newt Gingrich! If these Democratic "leaders" cannot stand up to Bush, who has an approval rating around 28%, we are in real trouble!

Democrats seem to have the illusion that they can easily win in 2008 and gain more seats in Congress because of Bush and public dissatisfaction with the GOP. They need to wake up! If Hillary Clinton is the party's nominee, she will probably loose to Rudy Giuliani. Many progressive Democrats are so fed up and frustrated they may throw their support to the Green Party, or not vote at all. The Christian Right will vote Republican, even for Giuliani, because of their hatred/fear of Hillary Çlinton and because the GOP has promised them to fill the courts with pro-life/conservative judges. The Democratic Party is not winning many hearts and minds, despite the dismal record of the Bush Administration.

Here's a good analysis in The Guardian of the problem plaguing the Democratic Party and what needs to be done to save it:
Democrats Hocking their Agenda

IMPEACH! (REVISED)

Sen. Russ Feingold told Meet the Press that he will introduce two censor resolutions against George W. Bush: one for the Iraq War, and one for violations of the U.S. Constutition and the Bill of Rights. Even with growing public support for impeachment or censure of Bush, Democratic Senate "Leader" Harry Reid says no. How did that spineless wimp become Senate Majority Leader?? But I agree with the Progressive Democrats at Democrats.com, "censure" is a cop out. What is wrong with the Democratic Party? If the Democrats fail to IMPEACH Bush and Cheney, as far as I'm concerned, it is finished. It is unacceptable to me that history will record Clinton was impeached for lying about his blowjob, but Bush and Cheney got away with HIGH CRIMES, and a Democratic Congress failed to defend the U.S. Constitution against a lying President who misled Congress and the world into an ILLEGAL war, and violated the constitutional rights of American citizens and usurped powers not granted to him by the U.S. CONSTITUTION. If the Democratic Party cannot show enough backbone to stand up to a President with a 30 percent approval rating, with 45-54 percent supporting IMPEACHMENT hearings, then is there really any hope for the Democratic Party?

THE WORLD CAN'T WAIT!!!
