CNN Poll: Strong Partisan divide [CNN covers up 63% of Democrats support Cut, Cap and Balance]
CNN ^ | July 21, 2011 | CNN political unit

"Republicans like the "cut, cap, and balance" approach to the debt ceiling, as do Democrats and independents. Most Americans support a balanced budget amendment, and most, but not as many, think an amendment is necessary to get federal spending under control. A balanced budget amendment passed the House earlier this week, but a vote in the Senate is expected to fail."

Notice that in the full version of this article, CNN reports various levels of support on various options. They refuse to report that Democrats overwhelmingly support the CCB option promoted by Republicans in the House. The full poll done by CNN is here:

If using American politics in 2011 as an analogy to poker, the US media is “all-in” on Soros, Obama and the Democrats.

They are not even remotely honest and they use people like Andy Vanderbilt, Nancy Graceless, Christine “Sha’ria” Amanpour and Fareed, “Bammy Advisor” Zakaria as analysts...

Far left morons and Muslims united in hating the US.

F CNN. Let the ratings sink even lower.

“Democrats and independents don’t see anything wrong with raising the debt ceiling as long as Congress takes action to reduce the amount of money the government owes, and some of them are willing to raise the debt ceiling even without any action by Congress at all,” says Holland. <<

Since the only way to ensure the reduction of the “amount of money the government owes” is to NOT increase the debt ceiling, I don’t see how this statement makes any sense.

Strangely, our POTUS doesn’t see a balanced budget amendment as a “balanced” way to address the debt ceiling crisis. Perhaps he’s mentally unbalanced.

I wondered how long it would be until they took it down.

Nice.
