60% TRUST THEIR OWN ECONOMIC JUDGMENT OVER OBAMA'S
THE FREEDOM POST ^ | December 23, 2009 | Matthew Burke

Posted on 12/23/2009 11:46:18 AM PST by TheFreedomPoster

It hasn't been a very good week for President Obama in public opinion polls on several different fronts. Not only do 60% trust their own economic judgment more than President Obama's, but 18% more strongly disapprove of the president's performance than those who strongly approve. This was the highest gap of strong disapproval over strong approval since President Obama took office.

And the other 40% don’t pay taxes and have no intention of getting off their asses. But in my mind, that’s a landslide if we have a true Conservative running in ‘12.

Only 60%! Something isn't right, it should be more like 80%. There can't be that many stupid people.

0bama doesn’t have to put food on the table, heat the house, pay the mortgage or clothe the kids. These things ‘get paid for’ by others, including us.

Let them eat Wagyu. Cuz he’s not eating pork in this lifetime, just porking us in the rear.

It is not that he is making mistakes. Obama is on a different agenda than 60% of us.

He wants to cripple the USA and make it a Marxist paradise for he and his power crazed cronies to be the ruling class forever.

I am so happy we are now members of the 60% club instead of 35 like 11 long months ago. Have patience, it takes some people several rounds on the snooze button before the alarm wakes them up. The 80% club is coming!!

I trust my judgment on any topic over obama's.

I do not want some government flunky telling me what kind of health coverage I need and my family needs. I do not want some government hack involved in my health care decisions. I don't want some monopolistic government agency telling me how much I will pay for their mandated coverage. Finally, I da*n-sure don't want these elitists imposing their will on me, while at the same time excluding themselves from the very same laws and regulations. What happened to by the people, of the people? They aren't "the people" any more when they start putting themselves above us. That tells me it is long past time to throw all these socialist elitist bums out.

I currently have very good insurance. I don't want it changed at all. I, like many people I know, spend less on healthcare insurance each month than they do on a car payment. If I have to make some kind of economic adjustment in my life, you can bet I'll keep my family's health at a higher priority than the wheels in the garage... In the end that is my decision and my responsibility, not the governments.

Maybe just humble folks believing that the elitists in Congress are more educated and knowledgeable There is a grand awakening in our future.

AP Headline:

"60% of Americans Still Stuck in Greedy Politics of the Past, Anxiously Await Obama's Liberation"


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.
