Hey tracey, 57 percent of americans support healthcare reform with a public option. But foxnews claim that the poll and others like it are wrong, so they did their own. According to "fair and balanced news" only 42 percent of americans support the public options.. Needless to say, when pundits and others tall about support for the bill, they quote the 42 percent. Ari Fliesher, one of bush's knuckled actually used it on CNN the day after tuesdays elections.
tracey hail you're absolutely right, except, foxnews relies on it own pollsters, who, by no ones surprise, found that the voter did, in fact, vote against obama. Hey, facts is facts! You can't fight facts! You see, its all about being fair and balanced, that's the only way to present the news. And as long as you watch foxnews, you can rest assured that you will never be misled or misinformed.
Oh snap, a Republican won Virginia? Mr. Obama is some trouble now.
As the voters in both races have stated ,ithey were NOT voting against Obama.,but leave wing nuts like Rush Lameboy & Shame HAnnitane to try to give the impression that Americans are ready this soon to allow them 8 more yerars of screw up thiis is all republicons have to gloat over ..GO PREZ
If the economy doesn't improve the indies will switch to republicans. Not because they can solve this mess (cause we know from expeirience that they can't), but because like any company, when a plan doesn't work switch to another. In this case there is only 2 parties (so far). I predict that if obama can't pull us out of this, a 3rd party will arise, and that party will occupy the white house.
