Obama: Polls Do Not Reflect the People
IBD's Capital Hill ^ | 3/15/2010 | Sean Higgins

Posted on 03/15/2010 2:08:59 PM PDT by Slyscribe

President Obama was out stumping for his health care bill in Ohio today. In the conclusion of his speech, he told the crowd that he would ignore the polls and do what the people want: The American people want to know if it’s still possible for Washington to look out for these interests, for their future. So what they’re looking for is some courage. They’re waiting for us to act.

What are the polls but an expression of what the American people want? Seems like Democratic pollsters’ intervention with Obama and the congressional Democrats over health care didn’t work.

Well how do you do?!

The Democrats and their Media have been using polls to bludgeon the Republicans for the last 12 years, and now, all of a sudden, polls don’t matter?

He’s as blind as he can be. Just sees what he wants to see.

That’s where you’re dead wrong.

Obama is NOT blind — he hopes that we become blind and fall for the trap that he is setting.

He told that to a crowd of 200 people. Bam ignores the truth.

When a politician says that, without some concrete argument about the polling methodology (likely/registered/adult) then they are all but conceding that they do not have the support of the people. Obama is no longer trying to fool everyone some of the time, he has shifted to trying to fool the most gullible of the dam's congress member all of the time.

They only matter when the results support the RATS.

It’s Obama’s way of saying he does not give two cents for what the majoroty on Americans want or need. He knows best because he is SOOOOOOOOOO qualified.

He’s delusional.

The following can indicate a delusion:[3]

1. The patient expresses an idea or belief with unusual persistence or force. (Adrian James Honan)

2. That idea appears to exert an undue influence on his or her life, and the is often altered to an inexplicable extent.

3. Despite his/her profound conviction, there is often a quality of secretiveness or suspicion when the patient is questioned about it.

4. The individual tends to be humorless and oversensitive, especially about the belief. (John Parsons)

5. There is a quality of centrality: no matter how unlikely it is that these strange things are happening to him, the patient accepts them relatively unquestioningly. (Matthew Ludgate)

6. An attempt to contradict the belief is likely to arouse an inappropriately strong emotional reaction, often with irritability and hostility. (Matthew Ludgate)(Adrian James Honan)

7. The belief is, at the least, unlikely, and out of keeping with the patient’s social, cultural and religious background.

8. The patient is emotionally over-invested in the idea and it overwhelms other elements of his or her psyche.

9. The delusion, if acted out, often leads to behaviors which are abnormal and/or out of character, although perhaps understandable in the light of the delusional beliefs. (Matthew Ludgate)

10. Individuals who know the patient will observe that his or her belief and behavior are uncharacteristic and alien.
