So, looters outnumber producers now. Nothing new here.
It is clear no one but the White House and its cheerleaders supports amnesty
So what do you do with the left and the right on cable tv citing the NBC/WSJ poll and poining out the 48% opposition to Obama doing his emperor move and only 28% supporting him doing this?
Somebody may want to tell both MSNBC and FOX News to take this poll with a grain of salt.
Yes the rats want the Republicans dead
How much of that 56% is for setting leadership direction, and how much of that 56% was just referring to Atomic number 82 (otherwise known as the element Pb).
Illegal immigration is a major driver for wage suppression in the lower and middle classes
Rand Paul spells disaster for the GOP. He is going around telling people that the GOP brand “sucks” and basically stating that voters’ opposition to Obama isn’t tantamount to voters’ loving the GOP.
Trying to strike deals with democrats is akin to striking them with muslims. They will lie to you, deal in bad faith, and stab you in the back when it's all said and done. A democrat can NOT be trusted any more than any other criminal.
LOL!
Ok, NBC.
So the American public voted to elected a record number of GOP to vote like Democrats?
Try to Gruber a better poll in the future.
Then I guess that FR needs to not accept any threads for any more polls about any politician or political party.
“Hypocrites”
Just about everyone knows this.
GOP senator warns of violence after immigration order
Susan Page, USA TODAY 9:05 a.m. EST November 20, 2014
WASHINGTON Oklahoma Sen. Tom Coburn warns there could be not only a political firestorm but acts of civil disobedience and even violence in reaction to President Obama’s executive order on immigration Thursday.
“The country’s going to go nuts, because they’re going to see it as a move outside the authority of the president, and it’s going to be a very serious situation,” Coburn said on Capital Download. “You’re going to see hopefully not but you could see instances of anarchy. ... You could see violence.”
You'll need to take that up with JimRob. What FR chooses to "accept" is his call.
You do know that this is the dominant poll being cited by both the left and the right concerning Obama’s emperor move on illegal immigration?
The one issue that the GOP will have trouble dealing with is the 65% wanting a minimum wage increase. One, because it is supported by concrete evidence in that 5 states (4 red and 1 blue) voted to increase the minimum wage, and two, over 60% in each of those states voted in favor of this.
I actually agree with him.
The problem younger voters and the urban gentry (which on economics is center-right if not staunchly conservative) has with the GOP is the brand, the semiotics and cultural associations, not the policies.
As usual, the problem with polls is the way the questions are asked. Of course most people want the parties to work together - as long it is “the other” guy working with “my” guy. Most people think their party has the right policy, and they want the other party to support that policy. That is their definition of “working together”. But the media’s definition of Congress working together is always for the GOP to come over to the Dem position, so that is how they interpret a poll result like this.
To the media, it is only bipartisanship when the GOP agrees with the Dems. When the GOP position prevails, it is partisan, even when they get Dems to join them.
THIS American will settle for nothing less than heads on pikes and well-attended Perp Walks!
See The Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982, Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986, Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Balanced Budget Act, etc etc etc.
To deal with Democrats is to surrender to democrats.
>>> Are you saying that one of the 2 major political parties in the US wants the other major one dead?
Politically speaking, yes.
From the Liberal Democrat’s perspective, the conservative republican is an enemy... not an equally valid and meaningful perspective on government.
From the GOP’s perspective as a whole, “getting along” or “peace” is viewed as achievable.
It is not... because the liberal democrat doesn’t want that, and they see absolutely no value in compromise.
Instead, they use the republican’s HOPE for compromise against them... and demonize their actions regardless of outcome.
The GOP will fail until it realizes what it’s dealing with... an opponent party which is directly in line with this nations most dangerous enemies.
I want gridlock.
