58% of Americans Want Bush Tax Cuts for the Wealthy Repealed
   
http://www.pollster.com/blogs/us_national_survey_pewnat...

31% want all the tax cuts repealed, while 27% want just the ones on the rich repealed. 30% want all the cuts to remain.

What do you think would do more to improve economic conditions in the country over the next few years?
46% Following the economic policies of Barack Obama's administration
29% Following the economic policies of George W. Bush's administration

This could be good news Obama always does the opposite of what people want. Health care and the AZ law.  :lmao:

1. So 35-40% of Americans want what's against their own interest.
   
Dandy.

I fail to see how raising taxes helps my best interest but dummies know better than I do of what is best for me.  :banghead:

6. And of that 42%, how many are one paycheck away from the total destitution, I wonder?
   
They never GET IT! x(

Hmmm so if we raise taxes on the rich then my paycheck will get bigger?
Sorry DUmmy my paycheck will be the same whether we tax the rich to death or not.

8. 71% of americans wanted a public option initially....before the 24/7 lies
   
and smears started.

You mean before the truth came out.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

It's only 31% want the tax cuts repealed.  The 27% group just want everyone else to pay more.
25 years ago we had Ronald Reagan, Johnny Cash and Bob Hope.  Now we have Obama, no hope and no cash.

79% of Americans want a law like Arizona's or TOUGHER.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Damn the DUmmies are on a stupid rant. Dummies, with the repeal of the Bush Tax Cuts, my taxes will increase approx $1000-$1500 yr. My household income in nowher near the "rich" level (well below 6 figures). So tell me, how is this going to HELP me?


Damn you assholes are idiots.

Bubba, they don't give a **** about you.  All they care about is that you are as miserable as they are and they get an opportunity to take more of our stuff.

Useless, greedy assed, liberal looters don't give a damn about anyone, not even themselves.
