With Bush's approval rating at 28%, and with and 18% approval rating for Congress, which is worse. This comes in light of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's comments that President Bush is a failure. This was her response to Bush's comment that Congress has failed with only 26 days left in session to act on any spending bills. This appears to be the latest that Congress has ever waited on approving spending bills. I'm sure there is more to the story, but Nancy "PATHETIC" Pelosi, along with Senate Majority Leader Harry "RIPOFF" Reid, aren't holding anything back. Now they have taken the criticism to new levels, not just about W's policies, but personal attacks.
It seems to me that both are failures in light of their approval ratings. So is Bush a failure? Is Congress a failure? Or are both to blame.
OK, I did not write this, i don't know where it came from other than from a friend who emailed it to me, but I had not seen it yet, so I'm posting it here. Enjoy. Feel free to add your answers to this question too!
*Why
did the chicken cross the road?* *BARACK OBAMA:*
The chicken crossed
the road because it was time for a CHANGE! The
chicken wanted
CHANGE!
*JOHN MC CAIN:*
My friends, that chicken crossed the road
because he recognized the need
to engage in cooperation and dialogue with
all the chickens on the other
side of the road.
*HILLARY
CLINTON:*
When I was First Lady, I personally helped that little chicken to
cross
the road. This experience makes me uniquely qualified to ensure --
right
from Day One! -- that every chicken in this country gets the chance it
deserves to cross the road. But then, this really isn't about me.......
*DR. PHIL:*
The problem we have here is that this chicken won't
realize that he must
first deal with the problem on 'THIS' side of the road
before it goes
after the problem on the 'OTHER SIDE' of the road. What we
need to do is
help him realize how stupid he's acting by not taking on his
'CURRENT'
problems before adding 'NEW' problems.*
OPRAH:*
Well, I
understand that the chicken is having problems, which is why he
wants to
cross this road so bad. So instead of having the chicken learn
from his
mistakes and take falls, which is a part of life, I'm going to
give this
chicken a car so that he can just drive across the road and
not live his
life like the rest of the chickens.*
GEORGE W. BUSH:*
We don't really
care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want to
know if the chicken
is on our side of the road, or not. The chicken is
either against us, or for
us. There is no middle ground here.*! *
*COLIN POWELL*:
Now to the left of
the screen, you can clearly see the satellite image
of the chicken crossing
the road...*
ANDERSON COOPER - CNN:*
We have reason to believe there
is a chicken, but we have not yet been
allowed to have access to the other
side of the road.*
JOHN KERRY:*
Although I voted to let the chicken
cross the road, I am now against it!
It was the wrong road to cross, and I
was misled about the chicken's
intentions. I am not for it now, and will
remain against it.*
NANCY GRACE:*
That chicken crossed the road
because he's GUILTY! You can see it in his
eyes and the way he
walks.*
PAT BUCHANAN:*
To steal the job of a decent, hardworking
American.*
MARTHA STEWART:*
No one called me to warn me which way that
chicken was going. I had a
standing order at the Farmer's Market to sell my
eggs when the price
dropped to a certain level. No little bird gave me any
insider
information.! *
DR SEUSS:*
Did the chicken cross the road?
Did he cross it with a toad? Yes, the
chicken crossed the road, but why it
crossed I've not been told.*
ERNEST HEMINGWAY:*
To die in the rain.
Alone.*
JERRY FALWELL:*
Because the chicken was gay! Can't you people
see the plain truth?'
That's why they call it the 'other side.' Yes, my
friends, that chicken
is gay. And if you eat that chicken, you will become
gay too. I say we
boycott all chickens until we sort out this abomination
that the liberal
media white washes with seemingly harmless phrases like
'the other side.
That chicken should not be crossing the road. It's as plain
and as
simple as that.*
GRANDPA:*
In my day we didn't ask why the
chicken crossed the road. Somebody told
us the chicken crossed the road, and
that was good enough.*
BARBARA WALTERS:*
Isn't that interesting? In a
few moments, we will be listening to the
chicken tell, for the firs! t time,
the heart warming story of how it
experienced a serious case of molting, and
went on to accomplish its
life long dream of crossing the
road.*
ARISTOTLE:*
It is the nature of chickens to cross the
road.*
JOHN LENNON:*
Imagine all the chickens in the world crossing
roads together, in peace.*
BILL GATES:*
I have just released
eChicken2007, which will not only cross roads, but
will lay eggs, file your
important documents, and balance your check
book. Internet Explorer is an
integral part of the Chicken. This new
platform is much more stable and will
never
cra...#@&&^(C%
.........reboot.*
ALBERT EINSTEIN:*
Did the chicken really cross the
road, or did the road move beneath the
chicken?*
BILL CLINTON:*
I
did not cross the road with THAT chicken. What is your definition of
chicken?*
AL GORE:*
I invented the chicken!*
COLONEL
SANDERS:*
Did I miss one?*
DICK CHENEY:*
Where's my gun?*
AL
SHARPTON:*
Why are all the chickens white? We need some black
chickens.
JFK was the first Catholic to be elected President of the U.S.
A recent AP article alludes to religion as a deciding factor for many voters.
So, with that said, what religion/denomination would you vote for if it was totally based upon religion?
Hillary Clinton - United Methodist
John Edwards - United Methodist
Barak Hussein Obama - United Church of Christ
John McCain - Episcopal
Rudy Giuliani - Roman Catholic (the AP made the distinction of being a divorced Catholic)
Mitt Romney - Mormon/Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints
Those are the big names. These are all Christian denominations mentioned, so sorry all you other religions, it doesn't look like you have a viable candidate. I know, I know, many argue that Mormonism is not Christian but is a cult, we'll leave that debate for another time.
I wonder when we'll have our first Buddhist President?
How about an Atheist? (sorry folks, Jefferson was not an Atheist, so he doesn't count, he was a deist.)
