77% of mainstream Americans oppose the Ground Zero Victory Mosque.

But, Barack Obama thinks it’s a nifty idea. (LA Times)

More Americans than ever are opposed to the Ground Zero Victory Mosque now that President Obama weighed in on the controversy. 77% of mainstream voters are opposed to the mosque while 68% of the political class are in favor of building the victory mosque.

Rasmussen reported:

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 85% of U.S. voters say they are now following news stories about the mosque planned near Ground Zero. That’s a 34-point jump from a month ago when only 51% said they were following the story.

The new finding includes 58% who are following the story very closely, up from 22% in mid-July.

We now have a complete and total disconnect of the “ruling class” from the “working class”.

Wars happen when this occurs.

Lackey: “Sire, the peasants are revolting!”

Obama: “I thought you had news for me.”

I hope Obama endorses Harry Reid and Barbara Boxer, to name just a couple of Democrats.

“Yep, and the ruling class turns the weapons on the working class.”

Except it is the working class that carries the weapons. Now I know why Obama wanted a national police force. This is turning into Animal farm.
