How the public is reacting:
What time does the game start?
The overwhelming reaction is isolationism, honestly. Asking why we had anyone in Benghazi in the fist place.
The gut reaction of the person in the street is essentially that we should close all our embassies and consulates in the Middle East, and withdraw the military from the Middle East.
Go into a bar or restaurant and strike up a few conversations. They won’t have a clue.
The best thing about the Conservative New Media is that it gives Independent voters who pride themselves on their independence a new way to express their independence, by saying “I watch CNN, but I also watch FOX”, “I read the NY Times, but I also read Drudge”.
I am very hopeful that Centrist Independent voters are switching back and forth between the major networks and FOX, and I don’t buy into this pessimistic “most people are idiots who don’t pay attention” crap.
It’s not that they don’t pay any attention or don’t care, it’s that they’re just not that passionate or partisan as hard core political junkies. That doesn’t mean that they’re completely out of it and can’t use their brains.
So I think that in terms of Independent voters, this crisis is a big loser for Obama. Obama hates FOX with a passion, because he knows they don’t just preach to the choir. He knows that Independents watch it in order to get some balance.
We’ve been wondering the same thing. My husband keeps pointing out that whenever Obama speaks there is never any anger or outrage over what happened to our people. We’re hoping that the general public notices this as well.
What riots?
You know, this negativity is just grinding me down lately.
I think I just need a break from all news for a couple of days.
That Islam is full of crazy people that need to be taught a lesson.
obama can go ahead and hold fund raisers while the world burns us at the stake .. obama can go on Letterman while we are being attacked abroad - the media covers for him still -they makes excuses for him - Are there enough who might finally wake up and see this? Or are they just numb ... accepting anything the media says - not caring what is going on. The polls have to be wrong... I can’t believe 50% of the people buy the lies... spoken over and over. Like Rush said.. can’t believe there are that many morons out there.
On the surface, leftists are saying that the YouTube video is entirely responsible for the riots. Internally, leftists are desperately trying to forget that they once genuinely believed that unlike that stupid cowboy George W. Bush, Obama would defuse the anger of Islamic terrorists, soothing them with his bowing and his America bashing and his skin color and his middle name, so there would be no more attacks. That leftist belief has now been conclusively proved to be a Pollyanna fantasy. Leftists will experience temporary psychological discomfort until they succeed in convincing themselves that they never believed what in fact they did believe. That usually takes two or three days.
Cheers!
I find it unfortunate that we are relying on Breitbart, conservative bloggers, and British news organizations to get the real story on these Embassy attacks.
If the entire U.S. news media reported the shenanigans that go on with the corrupt, naive, evil regime in the White House now as they did with Bush, Obama would likely have been impeached by now.
The 43% that are democrats don’t give a damn...Obama is right...he must be right.....we will follow Obama. The rest...90% are mostly clueless regarding the particulars, but are open to hearing the truth. Problem is...they get it from the MSM. So this may turn into a tempest in a teapot in their minds. It will depend on how hard they can tamp down lid on the information.
America has no clue what is happening here. This is The Fraud’s 9-11, his chance to save the world from WWIII. This is as staged as everything else this tool has done in his entire life.
Ignore Israel, let them attack Iran. As the Arab world rises in anger (staged anger), the Fraud rushes in and his brilliant diplomacy and resolve brings the situation under control. The MSM places the hero mantle on his head and poor Romney never had a clue what hit him.
After he’s re-elected he thanks his Muslim brothers for their part in the setup and tells them they can now do to Israel whatever the hell they want.
A member of my family said this “I don’t think I like this Rimney guy and I think I’ll go with obama again”. I’ve been sending her all the information I can... but she is set in her ways. She doesn’t get Fox on her TV, so what news she gets is from the other networks. She mentioned one time she watched The View.. She doesn’t even know when she is being lied to, nor does she know she is being brainwashed when she listens to shows like that. I can’t deal with someone who is that uninformed and wants to stay that way. They don’t know what would lie ahead with 4 more years of this. They didn’t see any of the present attacks coming... they won’t admit it when it’s in front of their faces. Makes a person want to scream.
I talked with two friends at church tonight, and they are both scared to death of what’s happening. However, I think they are both very well informed compared with the general public.
The indifference or maybe even outright defiance of Obama especially in the last week, and couple that with seeing Dinesh D’Sousa’s movie “Obama’s America:2016”, I am almost certain either the election will be fixed, or the martial law option will be used. Obama is already making decisions now as a big F-U to the country, moreso than the last 3 1/2 years it seems just in the past week or so. Scary times especially when every day now there are several instances where Obama is undermining our country and freedom of Americans.
