Poll : Americans worry Obama costing more than money
WND ^ | March 21, 2011 | Bob Unruh

A few hundred billion here, a few trillion there: Americans are becoming used to the concept that President Obama's response to many situations is to spend more money.

But now a new poll reveals 7 in 10 say President Obama's tenure in the Oval Office is costing them more than money, it's costing them their freedoms, and independents are leading the way with concerns there's been a big decrease in their rights to express themselves, discuss their religious faith, have a bumper sticker on their vehicle and attending political rallies.

They also are highly alarmed over the invasive lengths to which government goes to spy on them using cameras, scanners, electronic health records and the like.

The results are from the March WND Freedom Index Poll, done by Wenzel Strategies. The company, an independent public opinion research firm based in Ohio, conducted a nationwide telephone poll using a randomly selected sample of all adults. The survey, including 1,095 respondents, was conducted March 15-17, 2011, and carries a confidence interval of 95% and a margin of error of +/- 2.93 percentage points.

"The plummet since this question was last asked four months ago came largely because Independents and women have grown more convinced their freedoms have eroded," said company principal Fritz Wenzel.

I’m beyond worried....because I KNOW he’s spending more of OUR money on HIS vacations and around-the-world tour(s).

Never mind all the legislation and bills he’s tried to pass...

I am happy to see that some of the public are finally waking up to what was obvious to quite a few of us prior to the 2008 elections.

That it has taken this long is very troubling to me.

This rodent is deliberately wasting our money in order to create misery in the nation. It is trying to punish us on behalf of envious narcissistic monsters everywhere. It is a sworn enemy of America and humanity.

These people aint seen nothing yet. While gov't spending goes up, the prices of everything are headed up and taxes are on the increase.

I hope your happiness is based in fact. Unfortunately, this is WND.

Never underestimate the stupidity of the American people. Most of us thought there was no way on God's green earth, that Bill Clinton could ever win a second term, but look what happened. I almost puke at the thought of Obama winning again, but again, you can never underestimate the stupidity of the American people. He could do it again.

How can anyone trust Barry with money?

He has spent over $250.00.00 dollars so he would not have to spend $10.00 dollars for a document that the State of Hawaii has readily available.

Simply crazy. A document which has no information that could harm him.

A document that has no information that would change anything at all.

So his refusal to spend the $10.00 must be an economic one, right?

Let’s hope even more wake up and find out how pissed off they are in time for the 2012 elections, brother.

Could turn out to be the Shellacking Heard ‘round the World.

Obama knows where the money is - not always where it seems.
Good post.

[There is a ton of money stashed around the globe now] That's what I was referring to. Even stashed in Chicago.

Obama says, "no boots on the ground" but they wondered on TV about how democracy could be established with the Libyan islamic fighting group waiting to take over!

It's a Bungle in the Jungle <~~~~~LOL
