In future years, the American people (all of them) will see that (in retrospect) President Bush was a great President and was right to stand his ground.

I'm surprised this is still open.
Actually, it takes 51 out of 49 votes or 51 out of 50 votes to pass a law through the Senate. It takes 67 votes to have a "super" majority and have a "veto proof" vote.
In the house, the numbers are 218 votes to pass a bill and 292 to have a super "veto proof" majority.
I think the founding fathers should have written into the Constitution that you have the right to vote, but you must prove you are smart enough to vote (like actually know some basic civics things, be able to at least name 3 cabnit members, the president, VP, the house and senate minority and majority leaders, stuff like that) to prove that you care enough to weight the issues and at least make an informed decisison.
As far as our Individual rights...we need an ammendment that says all rights preserved in the Bill of Rights are indeed individual rights.

Clinton showing our weakness emboldened the islamic movements there and allowed bin laden to live, which had he had him killed 9/11 wouldnt have happened. And Bush cant run a good war for **** either.

Just so you know...Rasmusen and I think Fox both do polls of "likely voters". That IMHO is the most representative since those people care enough to vote, usually have a voice in our democratic / republic process, and have the right to complain.
I'm sure that's how Rasmusen does his.
