Those who use the democrip party to bring about their agenda are counting on opposition scruffling with each other, distracting them from slowing or stopping the agenda. And as Sowell states, it may already be too late to stop it, but it certainly becomes too late if we continue to scruffle with each other instead of uniting to throw the fascist thuggery out of power. Once the fascist are out, we can focus upon trimming Rinos. If we fail to stop these bastards now, the opportunity to thin the Rino herd will be moot.

Giving the Chicago thug a second term was the same as committing mass suicide. Great job Obamanoids!

At least you blamed the correct target, instead of conservative voters (as so many here have done).

Poll: 71% of Obama voters, 55% Democrats ‘regret’ voting for his re-election


YET...................... they will happy to vote for Hillary Nov.. 2016...
The delusion is amazing in it’s stupidness.. wonderful in it’s illogic..

Like Pavlof’s Dogs.. their mouth waters at media cues..
Mass hysteria at it’s finest...

Brilliant really.. even Rinos are whineing to be thrown a “bone” to chew on..
Heck there don’t even seem to many willing to perform a Civil War..
Well Done... whoever concocted this marvelous Treason..

They are riding the “Cowardice Wave”... gun ownership still available BUT the owners are afraid to USE THEM..
A people too selfish and corrupt to give their blood...
Waiting for OTHERS to do it FOR THEM..

I tell you “some one” sees the present situation very clearly..

I see the “takeaway” from the column not about the Cruz question, but his warning of the process of losing freedom by degrees due to political squabbling. He is warning that we may be past a point of no return toward tyranny, specifically citing the Weimar to Nazi Germany example. He just compared Obama to Hitler, at least politically in terms of a process toward tyranny by exploiting political divisions.

“There is something screwy with this poll. Look at the full internals: Question 3 asked Obama voters if they would vote for him again. 79% said yes, 10% said no. Question 4 asked Obama voters if they regretted voting for him. 71% said yes, 29% said no. Those numbers, taken together, make absolutely no sense.

Also, Question 3 had a total of 396 responses, while Question 4 only had 35 responses. (the same thing is true of the Romney set of questions, too - the “would you vote for him again” question got 363 responses, while the “do you regret your vote?” question got only 10 responses).”


I think I can figure out what is going on: Question 3 (”would you vote for Obama again?”) had 396 responses, of which between 38-41 were “YES” responses (10%, with rounding). Only those 38-41 persons who answered YES were then asked Question 4 (whether they regretted voting for Obama), of which only 35 responded, and 71% (25 out of 35) said that they regretted it. That 29% (10 out of 35) would not regret voting for Obama when they just said that they would not vote for him again is not that strange, since I can see 29% of such Obama-voting respondents thinking that while they wouldn’t vote for Obama if he ran again that they still would have voted for him over Romney in 2012.

If my analysis of the poll is correct, then the headline is ridiculously bad.

I’d bet anything the Democrats are trying to figure out how to get rid of this clown before he does more damage to the name brand.


Perhaps we need to start a campaign to call each DemoKrat senator up for re-election and say, “ I will vote for you if you vote for conviction of articles of impeachment and remove King Barry from office of Presidency.”

I was actually told long ago by a black man who ran a business which was a customer of my business that the truth was that black people would walk past a black owned shop to do business with a white owned shop. I took it with a grain of salt since I often saw black people placing orders when I was there. I think his only real complaint is that he did not get one hundred percent of their business.

You're right:

Here is a corrected version of the full poll results. Question 4 was "Asked of those who reported voting for Barack Obama in 2012 but would not vote for him if the election was held again."

So, all this poll says is that 71% of Obama voters who would not vote for him again regret their vote. Not that 71% of Obama voters regret their vote.

Blacks dismissive of skilled blacks? That could apply to whites, Asians, etc. There is jealousy/resentment in those of any background. Maybe it's because they are not as smart, not as ambitious and/or just plain lazy.

I suggest we may pay more attention to the performances of blacks because we've been given reason to mistrust them.

If educated and employed black people would reach out and show others the way to enjoy a better life, they would have a better chance of being heard than coming from the mouths of non-blacks.

In 1950 I took a trip to Key West. At an airport in Miami, there were two water fountains---one for blacks and one for whites. Segregation and racism obviously had not ended.

In 1958 I saw discrimination at a Maryland restaurant. For me, in some way, it's not history, as I lived it as a white girl.

...Americans have no core values...

When others speak for me and what I think, it really rankles me. This generalizing, as you just did, is just plain false. Allow us to speak for ourselves, thank you!

That’s proof that democrats ar brain damaged; only 55% can see the patently obvious.

Could be an epic election if the GOP-e don’t mess it up in November.

I think I see the flaw in your logic.
