Sorry to state but your post is similar or worse in tone to an angry teapartier. How does it feel to be a hypocrite?
How does pointing out the truth make me a hypocrite? How does saying that I'm glad to help people who are being held down make me angry? The only thing NOT to like about what I posted is that the truth hurts. There isn't one thing I posted that anyone could possibly disagree with, because facts are facts.
Cons need to actually do some work instead of spending all of their time and efforts in search of a scandal.
Be careful what you wish for. There are plenty of low information voters on both sides of the aisle. You might not like which responses the comedians choose to air.
I don't doubt it. Not trying to imply one party is more apathetic and uncaring then the other when it comes to keeping informed on politics and foreign affairs.
Heck..I don't care if they ask the political party. Just ask the people and show us how many answered correctly.
A majority of voters only come out of the closet every 4 years and could care less the rest of the time.
Just had some local elections in Austin. In a city of 800K+, only 38K turned out to vote. Big bond packages passed with 19K voting. Those 19K decided the financial fate of 800K people.
We are concerned about the scandals, and I believe that justice is being pursued. Two IRS senior staff have been booted, and more may be on the way. Benghazi is a mistake to be sure, scandal, only to a gotcha GOP person.
I think the broader issue is trust. Obama has shown himself to be intelligent, measured, and mature in the many budget stand offs, etc. with the GOP. People feel he has their back and is a competent manager. Meanwhile, the GOP careens from phony crisis and tantrum to tantrum, attacking the poor and coddling the rich even as we try to crawl out of the worst recession in a century. They feel that Obama is working for them, whereas the GOP has devolved into a bunch of intolerant crazies or lobbyists who are working for the 1%.
Given the alternative, Obama is much more appealing.
You and the rest of the left care nothing about the laws of the land so long as your getting free obama phones.
I'm still waiting for one of you righties to explain to me what laws have been broken. And by the way, Obama didn't invent the welfare phone. Your guy did.

These polls are using interesting sampling in order to achieve a not horrible number for the hero of the insane.
Are you Ghanaian, Nigerian or from the Ivory Coast this week?

A lot of bottom feeders and mailbox watchers out there.
I'd rather be called a "bottom feeder" as opposed to watching my affiliation get their bottom handed to them week after week after week.

A circle only has one side. Apparently, your side is disrespect towards the president. Birds of a feather, I suppose. Oh, also thank you for your words as they turn off moderates like you wouldn't believe.

Retiring isn't "being booted"
And a temp guy who is leaving next month "gets booted" but is still working there today doing "transition"
the poll consisted of 1000 people-- in a country of over 300 million people-- and it was partly conducted in Spanish:
This Washington Post-ABC News poll was conducted by telephone May 16-19 among a random sample of 1,001 adults. Interviews were conducted in English and Spanish on land lines and cellphones
hmmm, a small skewed poll----they must be getting desperate for some approval.
Where exactly are these majority of Americans OP? Outer Mongolia? Timbuktu?
