Shaun Kenney | Politics and Religion in Virginia's Public Square


Sunday, March 19, 2006 Whither the Anti-War Movement? Looks as if this weeks protests were a complete bust. Given this and the relatively low approval ratings for President Bush at the moment, my question is why is the media feeding us the line that America is rejecting Bush's Iraq policy, when most conservatives will tell you the problem lies with other aspects of the Bush presidency (i.e. Harriet Miers, lack of pro-life initiatives, immigration, etc). I'd like to see a real poll that identifies why people are so upset with President Bush. If this weekend is any indicator at all, the liberation of Iraq certainly isn't having the same impact on folks as it used to. posted by Shaun Kenney \| 3/19/2006 10:48:00 AM \| 4 comments 4 Comments: At 12:23 PM, Dvt guy said... "most conservatives will tell you the problem lies with other aspects of the Bush presidency (i.e. Harriet Miers, lack of pro-life initiatives, immigration, etc)." Heh....probably not. Although Immigration probably pushes Bush's numbers down a bit amongst crazy people. I think the biggest problem for Bush is the ports issue. Yes, the ports issue. On this issue, I agree with Bush. But for some reason, this issue has single-handedly pushed his numbers down...it's insane. At 1:32 PM, Shaun Kenney said... I'm with you on the ports issue. I think the combination of that and the whole Minuteman thing is pushing his numbers down. Insane indeed.

Ha, suuuuure.... At 7:22 PM, Shaun Kenney said... Thousands... pfft. I wonder what the conversation could have possilby been like on the ground: "So, you here again?" "Yeah man! Bush is a fascist!" "Doooood - I knooooow." shuffles "So, uh... you wanna get a latte after this?" "Sure. I guess." Amazing. Post a Comment Home
