Poll: More Americans side with Obama than Romney on Libya (no breakdown data)
LA Times ^ | 9.17.2012 | Morgan Little

A plurality of Americans approved of President Obama’s handling of events in the Mideast, but by a wide margin Americans had a negative reaction to the way his Republican opponent Mitt Romney has reacted to the events, according to a Pew Research Center poll.

The new poll found that, of those Americans who had paid attention to the protests, riots and killing of Americans in recent days, 45% approved of Obama’s moves, while 36% disapproved. Judgments of Romney were far more negative, with only 26% approving and 48% disapproving.

Romney came under fire even from Republicans last week when he condemned Obama for what he said was apologizing to and sympathizing with “those who waged the attacks.” He based that on a statement from the U.S. Embassy in Cairo that did not apologize and was released during protests but before any attacks had been made.

All this says is that 52% didn’t agree with how a sitting President handled the ME crisis.

A group of RINOS criticized Romney to get into the news cycle and we know their names. I can’t believe how dumb this nation has become that we approve of the failed apologies of Barack Obama, but disapprove of a strong statement for American values and pride in such values. Disgraceful.

I guess the masses really are under the sway of Obama’s propaganda wing.

In related news, 100% of the Obama voters also hoped that the Mideast unrest would not result in any of their freebies being curtailed.

80% of America responded that they believe mainstream news to be highly accurate.

This is a BS poll. There are no internals, it means nothing. They could have polled a bunch of Democrats with some token independents and Republicans thrown in.

I’m starting to think Americans are ingesting ‘bath salts’ by a wide margin too.. Americans aren’t only easily fooled by a lying, corrupt and criminal regime, they’re the stupidest people on Earth.

Oh hey, that’s great and so, so spontaneous!

You know, I can’t wait to see the day that the morons of this country get their asses kicked from one side of the world to the other.

Although, I suspect that they are so stupid that they will agree with those whom are kicking their asses from one side of the world to the other.

The nice thing about this issue is that you can lie and lie and will believe it, but the issue doesn’t go away and you can buy it with someone else’s money from taxes. This is not over and we will get one of our cities destroyed because the msm is so complicit with this loser potus. Plus, they are so stupid that they don’t even consider that it will be one of the liberal cities.
