Why Do 14% of Americans still have confidence in the Dem Controlled Congress?

Question

Are these people out of their minds?

I hope no liars will come here to deny the 14% gallup numbers.

Answer 1

I think most of those 14% are Yahoo answers lib-types.

Answer 2

Because the Democrats are getting things done, even though Conservatives refuse to see it.


Within 7 months, they've issued FOUR Iraq war bills (three shot down, one passed). Because of that , Bush is now on a budget, Iraq has benchmarks, and Bush has to send Progress Reports to Congress that is more than just his usual, "we're making progress".

We've also lowered the minimum wage, and are still trying to reform Immigration. We were also in the makings of an evergy bill, until Republicans showed their true Corporate-following colors and filibustered it.



We've done more in 7 months than the Republican Congress did in 12 years. The only reason Americans don't have confidence in Congress is because they're listening to propogandic FOX News and their view on Congress.

Answer 3

The American people have no confidence in Bush, the economy or the Congress in it's ability to stop Bush. You're not stating the polls in their proper context. They'll throw out Bush in 2008 and the numbers will improve. They won't improve much though, since Congress never gets good poll numbers.

Answer 4
