90%.... most of them just pass along whatever they "heard".... and run in a "herd".....
Why did only FOX broadcast the declassification of military and intelligence documents last June that said there were WMDs found in Iraq early on? It was classified for security reasons originally. Bush kept his mouth shut about them, even under terrible accusations about his actions. But no other major news station even mentioned it. Funny.... isn't it?

I assume you are speaking about P. bush. Not trying to be smart **** but there are others like me who use Q&A are not from the good aul U.S. of A. And I also have a President. To answer your question, absolutley.. You will always get the blind leading the blind . Followers and leaders so to speak.. Politicians use this concept to manipulate there position and standings in oppinion polls and its what I hate about them . they are only interested in there jobs and the dont give a **** about the real issues effecting people.. Its a fine thin line with most people when they decide whos right and whos wrong..

Not sure but I do know that my family has been effected tremendously by a terrible economy during his presidency.
It is sad when college graduates cannot find a professional job upon graduation and then you hear President Bush claim that the economy is growing and that the job market is up.
I feel sorry for President Bush. I think if he did not appear to be so arrogant then maybe more people such as myself would like him a little better. He also gives us Texans a bad rap...It makes me wonder if he really graduated from college or not....Srategerism....Ha Ha!!

It's like most things, the people who really know very little are the prime Loudmouths!
As they say, 'Empty barrels make the most sound'. They try to sound knowledgable anfd important, but very few people really understand enough to make properly informed, independent decisions, so they just Guff on about what they have heard everybody else deliver around them. They falsely think there is accuracy and safety in the majority opinion.
Young people are particularly vulnerable to this type of mistake.
I would guess over 99% of people don't really have much clue as to where it has all come from, and exactly why it is where it is, and what the hidden influences are in their lives that have coloured their outlooks.
Much self- and other-awareness is invloved in proper, objective, political decision-making.

I would say most of them. But then again, you have to really WANT to know what's going on to figure it out - our media certainly doesn't give us the whole story.
As to the "bad economy" - that is a local issue, honey. Not trying to be snarky, I'm really not, but here in Alaska, things are booming. When I was in Washington state 2 years ago, same thing - they were building like mad. Illinois last year - same thing. If your local economy is bad, look to your local gov't!

WMD's my ***. Everything that has come out of GW's mouth has been false. That was a false document and it figures it would come out on fox news there bought and paid for by the republican party. U wanna check out real document...check out operation northwoods. The people who run our government are not leaders or good people, it doen't matter whether their dems or republicans, they are liars. When the military commissions act 2006 was sign the republic was officially dead.

Not sure, but I think all will have less reason to, now that the checks and balances are back in place. The reason we have had so much "complaining" is because there has been good reason- in other words, it wasn't just the usual malcontents.

At least 75 percent. I think it is the same for those who support him blindly as well. This last election give hope that maybe things are changing though.

None, they are just the smart ones who recognise his actions and hear his words and cringe with embarrassment...there's a lot to complain about with him at the helm.
