How I Know, Like I Needed More Evidence, That You're All Left Wing Kooks

CAGiversary!
Despite the bleatings of Democratic politicians, the left wing blogosphere, the wishes of Democratic leaning talking heads on TV what has happened?

A mere 13% of the country blames Bush for the scope of the catastophe in New Orleans.

Of course that's the same 13% that would blame Bush for anything, you know.... like you people do. This CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll is currently not even reported on usatoday.com and is in a small linked headline in the middle of cnn.com, nowhere near the BANNER TYPE HEADLINE it would have been had 30% or more of the country actually blamed Bush. In other words, by the end of the day the only people that will be reporting this poll will be talk radio and the right wing blogosphere. It may get buried in tomorrow's USA Today, you'll have to search for the results on cnn.com and no other MSM outlet will even bother to report the results.

The usual suspects have failed and failed miserably while trying to convince the American people of something that isn't true. Another nail in the coffin of the MSM credibility, their effectiveness and the Blame Bush crowd.

Will they learn? Of course not. I look forward to what will sure to be a hysterical group of responses from you people. Remember, if you're REALLY kooky I'll be sure to make sure your wods get far greater circulation than the vs. board.

Poll: Most Americans believe New Orleans will never recover
Still, 63 percent of respondents say city should rebuild

Wednesday, September 7, 2005; Posted: 2:05 a.m. EDT (06:05 GMT)

(CNN) -- A majority of Americans believe the city of New Orleans will never completely recover from the effects of Hurricane Katrina and the resulting flooding, according to results of a CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll released Tuesday.

Fifty-six percent of 609 adults polled by telephone September 5-6 said they believe the hurricane devastated the city beyond repair. And 93 percent of poll respondents said they believe Katrina is the worst natural disaster to strike the United States in their lifetime.

But a majority of respondents -- 63 percent -- said they believe the city should rebuild. And 66 percent said they believe all New Orleans residents should evacuate the city.

Opinions varied widely, however, on the response of federal, state and local officials regarding Katrina. Forty-two percent of respondents characterized President Bush's response to the disaster as "bad" or "terrible," while 35 percent said it was "good" or "great."

Federal government agencies' response was described as "bad" or "terrible" by 42 percent, and "good" or "great" by 35 percent. State and local officials' response was described as "bad" or "terrible" by 35 percent and "good" or "great" by 37 percent.

Respondents also disagreed widely on who is to blame for the problems in the city following the hurricane -- 13 percent said Bush, 18 percent said federal agencies, 25 percent blamed state or local officials and 38 percent said no one is to blame. And 63 percent said they do not believe anyone at federal agencies responsible for handling emergencies should be fired as a result.

In recent days, 62 percent said they believe progress made in dealing with the situation is satisfactory.

However, a resounding 79 percent said they believe gas companies are taking advantage of the situation and charging unfair prices to consumers as a result of the hurricane.

For poll results based on the total sample, one can say with 95 percent confidence that the margin of error is plus or minus 4 percentage points. For results based on the 268 respondents who say the city of New Orleans will completely recover from the effects of Katrina, the maximum margin of sampling error is plus or minus 6 percentage points.

BTW, notice how the "Blame Bush" percentage wasn't the headline? You know how bad this poll had to pain editors at CNN and the USA Today? They'll all be off on Peach Street, the Russian Tea Room and Georgetown crying tonight about how the American people just don't "get it".

The problem will never be them it will always be America and the American people. The chattering media heads will never understand that they no longer represent the mainstream of American thought and their relevance, circulations and ratings will continue to plummet. I heartily recommend many of you apply for jobs with the New York Times, Washington Post and Los Angeles Times. You'd be amongst the last of the true believers.

Oh and I don't expect any of you to change your stripes and admit you're wrong. You can't, you just can't. It has to be me, the poll sample, the weighting of geography, that the pollsters didn't form the questions properly etc. I know none of you can back down from the positions you've staked out but that's okay. I knew you were moonbats before I posted this.
 
Sorry, I got caught up with this statement in the article:

Forty-two percent of respondents characterized President Bush's response to the disaster as "bad" or "terrible, while 35 percent said it was "good" or "great."
 
while 35 percent said it was "good" or "great."

So you add that to your 42% makes 77%. Which leaves 23% with a neutral opinion.

So..... 56% of the respondents have a neutral or positive view.

You can be stuck on the negative all you want I would expect no different.
 
Don't count on that 23% neutral staying there once the dust settles. It could go against Dubya.
 
With survivors getting $2,000 debit cards and aid packages that will likely top $20,000 per head for doing nothing more than being stupid enough to stay behind in a sub sea level city in a category 4 hurricane I'll put my money on the rest of the country not blaming Bush.

I think the country can blame Bush for staying on vacation while people were drowning. Since Bush declared a state of emergency, and it is also one of the responsibilities of the Department of Homeland to respond to natural disasters, it doesn't matter that only 13% said Bush is to blame. It WAS his job to respond, and he failed miserably.

alright ass, some people couldnt afford to leave. You make it sound so easy, but what if u dont have a car, or cant afford a place to stay, or cant afford public transportation, or have someone too sick too travel. The people effected the most by this are the poor who struggle in normal situations and now assholes like you blame them for not leave. Get a clue.

Or 65% have a negative or neutral view. Seriously, that's a stupid way of putting it since the 23% can be tacked on to whatever agenda you have.
 
PAD, let's see what posts you've made:

"Problems That Will Make Lefties Cry Under Their Beds"

In this thread, you copy and paste an article from Free Republic without offering any of your own analysis or opinion in the original post.

Also in this thread, pretty much anything you said was successfully rebutted:

On the newspaper analogy

On Hillary Clinton's support

New Orleans Officials July 2005: Hurricane? You're On Your Own

Here, you took quotes from "Mayor Ray Nagin, local Red Cross Executive Director Kay Wilkins and City Council President Oliver Thomas" about what to do in a disaster:

In scripted appearances being recorded now, officials such as Mayor Ray Nagin, local Red Cross Executive Director Kay Wilkins and City Council President Oliver Thomas drive home the word that the city does not have the resources to move out of harm's way an estimated 134,000 people without transportation."

"In the video, made by the anti-poverty agency Total Community Action, they urge those people to make arrangements now by finding their own ways to leave the city in the event of an evacuation.

"You're responsible for your safety, and you should be responsible for the person next to you," Wilkins said in an interview. "If you have some room to get that person out of town, the Red Cross will have a space for that person outside the area. We can help you."
Click to expand...

You fail to provide a reasonable analysis of what they said, instead resorting to this:

[quote name='PittsburghAfterDark']"Hurricane" Ray Nagin rockin' atcha! Poor!? Vote for him! Wanna die? Vote for him! He's black dammit! He's a Democrat! That's all that matters!

We'll bus you to the polls but we won't bus you out of town if your life depends on it. You'll drown.... just like city busses!

WOOOOOHOOOOOO MAYOR RAY ROCKS![/quote]

Of course, you didn't mention anything about them saying they didn't have the RESOURCES to take care of the 134,000 who would be in harm's way in the event of a hurricane (wonder where the resources would come from?)

You also failed to provide a link to the original article, Instead, you provide one from the Druge Report. This automatically puts your evidence in question and by itself warrants the loss of the argument on your part.

You were also successfully rebutted on a number of things:

On the lack of resources

On the lack of resources..AGAIN

ROP Update: No Jewish of Christian Prayer In Shools! Muslims? Oh, That's Fine

Another thread where you simply post an article and don't comment on it in your original post.

Later in the thread, though, after I made an owned pic showing that ownership of yourself had been tranferred over to alonzomounrning23, you attempted to separate yourself from the article:

[quote name='PittsburghAfterDark']I'm just curious.... how can I be owned when I didn't write the article. Didn't post anything in reference to it or reply to any response except this one?[/quote]

By posting the article, and editorializing in the thread title, you edorsed the idea that Muslims were given special treatment when it came to praying in school.

You also resorted to insults instead of trying to formulate an argument:

[quote name='PittsburghAfterDark']I suggest you don't escape from the short bus in the future. Mom and dad, or is it just mom.... after all who could love you but a mother.... put you on that short bus and tightened up your hockey helmet for a reason.

You have wayyyyyyyyy too much time on your hands.[/quote]

You were also successfully rebutted multiple times in this thread:

On the right to pray in school

On the subject matter of the article

On making a reference to the article

Complete List of U.S. Friends and Allies Contributing Katrina Relief

In this thread, you made a commentary on the supposed lack of foreign relief coming to the U.S. in the wake of Hurricane Katrina.

Of course, this wasn't true, and proof was posted multiple times in the thread. You didn't make any responses to anything anybody else posted, nor did you edit your original post to reflect the countries giving relief. In another thread, you explained your reasoning:

[quote name='PittsburghAfterDark']What's the point of responding and updating that thread? When it was written no one had contributed.

Are you going to blame and repremand people that made periodic element charts in the 1920's that by the 1950's their charts were obsolete? Do you blame the sports pages on Sunday morning for not having the scores of the games Sunday afternoon?

Grow the fuck up.[/QUOTE]

But, you failed to mention the edit button that exists on the forum, which allows people to edit their posts as many times as they want. You could have used it to change your post, but you didn't. You obviously knows how to use it, as you did edit something from your original post.

I won't bother linking the posts that proved you wrong, as there were so many.
 
Wow, you really have far too much time on your hands. I recommend a hearty run, bike ride or maybe finding a girl, or boy, that doesn't find you repugnant to spend some quality time with. Those have to be far better uses of your time than spending an hour or two going through my post history and making a link heavy post that I'll never read.

I'm curious, do you think making another owned picture might make you cool? You could try that again. It really has made you well respected in life you know.

And the insults begin.

Na, na, na, na. Na, na, na, na. Hey, hey, hey, goodbye.

Thank you for proving my point.
 
[quote name='PittsburghAfterDark']What point was that again?[/QUOTE]
Obviously instead of making an intelligent and believeable rebuttle, you instead run away and go off topic, or simply insult the person.
