Recent polling data show that the National Rifle Association has a higher favorability rating than both President Barack Obama and the mainstream media.
Fifty-four percent of Americans said they have a favorable opinion of the NRA according to a USA Today/Gallup Poll conducted Dec. 19-22.
A Gallup poll released earlier this year showed that Americans distrust of the media hit a new high with 60 percent saying they had little or no trust in the mass media while 40 percent said they had a great deal or fair amount of trust.
Barack Obamas popularity falls short of each with a Huffington Post poll showing the presidents average favorability at 52.3 percent.
This average includes ratings of 53 percent in a December 9 NBC News/Wall Street Journal pol; 56 percent in a November 18 CNN poll; 49 percent in a December 16 CBS News poll and 52 percent in a Politico/GWU/Battleground poll; and a Gallup/USA Today poll from Nov. 12 showing a 58 percent favorable rating.
Not surprising.
“Not surprising.”
It is to me. We have a population (half) who voted for another 4 years of the idiot in chief, yet they can surmise the NRA is more favorable than the same idiot in chief they voted for. Go figure..
Is that Stallone in the picture or Kerry?
