Just 42 percent of likely voters oppose a temporary ban.

Whoa. This poll was taken before the mass shooting?

Hey Paul Ryan, can you hear us now?!

Is this a Trump-type Bradley Effect?

Why just a temporary ban? Radical islam (sharia) has not changed in 1400 years. Is there some great reformation on the horizon?

If Reuters says “half” then it’s probably more realistically like 75 to 80%.

The headline of the story is a little ambiguous in that “half support” might suggest half oppose, but then the article clarifies it that 42% is in opposition. One wonders how many of the “don’t knows” are just reluctant to say they support the moratorium.

Then you read that most of the interviews took place before Orlando and you realize that there has been a massage shift in the last few days to swing the results as far as this. Fully post-Orlando is possibly more like 60%.

thank god that a country that sadly got brainwashed into electing Hussein twice now supports the second biggest rebuke to Obama in 8 years, DESPITE the Islam-loving media.

Hell, even if Trump loses bc the media tears down his character, poll-watching Hillary will never forget that Americans don’t want un-Americans in this country.

BTW; someone should tell this to Paul Ryan; why does he ignore his constituents? (and as Speaker, we ALL are his constituents; he’s essentially Prime Minister of the United States given he would be PM if we were a parliamentary system)

And if they worded the poll the way Trump worded his proposal, 75% would agree....

And rioters belong in prison, particularly when they are astroturf. And recruiters of astroturf are guilty of inciting riots and deserve life in prison and confiscation of every last cent of their fortunes.

“Just 42 percent of likely voters oppose a temporary ban.”

And time will erode that opposition.

Facebook has been working overtime to suppress the truth about Islamo-terrorism, but even they can't hide it all.

Islamophiles will continue to lose credibility. It's inevitable.

I was shocked when I encountered a Facebook drone face to face. The person was a rabid Islamophile. Even dating a really nice muslim refugee from Egypt. I pointed out that the Christian refugees are banned.

“You are buying into hatemongering propaganda that is fortunately not allowed in Facebook.”

They live there — a huge block of our population. I don’t know if anyone but Trump could have penetrated that wall of willful ignorance.

I sense things are starting to backfire because FB banned for a few days a site started by Pamela Geller. A new site has been set up by her because folks got upset over her being banned.
