Interviewed on Fox News Sunday, Laura Bush said she did not think people were losing confidence in
President George W. Bush, despite a series of polls showing support for him at its lowest point in his five-year presidency and among the lowest for any president in the past 50 years.“I don’t really believe those polls. I travel around the country. I see people, I see their responses to my husband. I see their response to me,” she said.
“As I travel around the United States, I see a lot of appreciation for him. A lot of people come up to me and say, ‘Stay the course’.”
Exactly! If they only polled people who have taken loyalty oaths to him, like the people Laura Bush sees, he’d be polling a lot higher.
But guys like us, we don’t pay attention to the polls. We know that polls are just a collection of statistics that reflect what people are thinking in “reality.” And reality has a well-known liberal bias. - Colbert
