I just don’t believe the poll - flat out. I just heard this morning on the radio 57% of people do not trust Obama; his approval rating slipped 8% in the last month.

Again, I’ve said this before. You HAVE to carefully read the questions in the poll to see how they have been designed to manipulate the answer...

The poll is bullshit.

Oh, yeah?! I saw a poll that said “99.9% of people with a functioning brain said CNN is pure, unadulterated garbage.”

Thanks.

And notice how this is not just that the people believe that the federal government has this “right,” nor that the NSA has it, nor that the administration has it, but that the OBAMA administration. OBAMA has this right, the Fuhrer has this right.

The same lie that Pew used — “foreign countries”.

This CNN Poll does not upset me as much as what I saw on Fox News Sunday yesterday.

Dick Cheney followed by a panel of elitist twits headed by Karl Rove and Britt Hume, Democrat apologist Jane Harman of the house intelligence committee and crazy Juan Williams who is all in on anything, Barry is all in on.

CNN is one of two propaganda machines for the Democrat Party. Fox News is truly the official propaganda machine of Big Brother.

Fox News Channel is a mouthpiece for the New World Order and Karl Rove be minister of propaganda. He can trash Barry all he wants, but his loyalty to his elitist masters may be found in his support of open borders and the police state.

I think more specific questions would yield something like this:

Do you approve of the government monitoring the internet activities of radical Muslims? 79%

Do you approve of the government’s abilities to read your emails and look at your sexting photos? 3%

Of course the Obama administration has the right to collect and analyze data using the NSA. How else are they expected to regain the House of Representatives in the November 2014 election?

All those inaccurate and diminishing qualifiers in the question got CNN the results they wanted—but they demonstrate nothing that pertains to this situation.

Don’t think he really gives a rats at this point.

I knew the dumbing down of America has been in full swing for quite a while, but I never realized how many Low Information morons had been produced.

According to the same poll:

96% of Americans do not want “another Hiroshima”.
92% of Americans do not want “another Nagasaki.”
62% of Americans wish they could ride a unicorn.
8% of Americans believe they are allergic to unicorns.
47% of Americans think that England is part of New England.
22% of Americans think that New England is part of England.
32% of Americans believe that Women’s Suffrage is Cruel and Unusual Punishment.
16% of Americans want the EPA to ban dihydrogen monoxide.

The margin of error in this survey is +/- 300%

Democracy is an evil from the pits of Hell - and our Founders were wise to fear it.

So do 66% also believe it’s ok for Obama to use what he ‘learns’ against conservatives ? I suspect that is 66% too.

Slightly more reliable news source than the Onion, Weekly World News or Huffington Post.

Quite a bit more reliable than Newsweek (alt name-Amerikan Communist Rantings Weakly)
