Poll shows swing voters hating everything Obama
daily caller ^ | 2/14/14 | neil munro

A Fox News poll shows that most swing-voters think President Barack Obama is overstepping his legal authority by selectively enforcing Congress’ laws, such as the 2010 Obamacare law.

Sixty-six percent of independents, and 90 percent of Republicans said they disapprove of “Barack Obama going around Congress and using executive orders.”

Only 15 percent of independents, and 7 percent of conservatives, think Obama’s efforts to bypass Congress are “the way our government is supposed to work.”

The lopsided results in the February poll of 1,006 registered voters is a loud warning signal for Obama, who is relying on his extensive use of executive orders, regulations and unilateral actions to boost his policies and his supporters’ morale in the run-up to the November election.

The election is important because Republicans could win a narrow majority in the Senate, and help the GOP to develop a governing agenda to offer voters in 2016.

Do these vote?

Voter ID law should really require voters to pass a Constitution exam, you know. (yeah, I’ll get flamed for that remark)

Remember, this bastard is just the symptom, the Frankenstein Monster created by Americans who don’t understand the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, Magna Carta, the progress of western civilization and why American is the last best hope for humanity.

They have been brainwashed by a convocation of whores in Hollywood, silly feel-good clerics, sophomoric university professors and a Marxist controlled mainstream media.

Unless they change their thinking, even if we impeach Obama, another idiot like him will surface, as in a poorly flushed toilette.

Alas, you are right. And too many of them don’t like him, not because they have finally realized the idiocy of his philosophy, but because he didn’t deliver to their satisfaction.

I’m guessing those 7% of Conservatives aren’t really Conservatives.

I always laugh when polls show that something like 16% or Republicans approve of the job that Obama is doing.

Fx News’ poll indicates that swing voters evidently don’t understand that the states have never delgated to Congress, via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for public healthcare purposes. Note that if Congress had successfully petitioned the states to ratify a healthcare amendment to the Constitution before establishing Obamacare then I woudn’t be making this post.

Voters, all voters, should be reminded that little barry liar rules at the behest of the democrips party and republicant fecklessnes

Yes and they should be reminded that they've abdicated their Constitutional rights and will soon have done the same with their freedom. And they should be told to grow up and step up to the plate before it's too late for all of us including their children and grandchildren.

So, maybe he’d lose if he were to run for a 3rd term then.

How many think he “overstepped his authority” and *approve* of it?

The only problem is that a lot of these dipshits would keep voting for him if he could run again...

There's just too much stupidity to wade through in every day life that's walking around..

Conservative to those “conservatives” means they don’t get drunk or use other mind altering drugs everyday.

Alas, the segregationist racists screwed that possibility by using such tests to keep blacks from voting.

Otherwise, it would be in keeping with the conviction of the Founding Fathers that democracy requires an informed and moral electorate.
