| Based on your premise, who would want to win a contest judged by the idiots who are stupid enough to reply to polls? Last edited on Sun Jun 28th, 2009 03:40 pm by Playing the Game

| More and more Americans believe polls are unscientific, unreliable, biased, privacy-invading, and a waste of time. The reputation of pollsters is down around the abysmal level of that of journalists and used car salesmen. Hows that for a poll? Do you right wingers really think you are going to win a popularity contest at this point?Come on.

| Hb, I suppose your first reference to Obamas negative popularity was from personal experience not from any poll numbers, (yea right) either way having a negative rating on his handling of the economy, which is what current polls show, has not translated into a negative popularity rating. At least not yet. Judging by Republican showings in the most recent elections you are the ones that haven't grasped the significance of poll numbers and with your current "leadership" I doubt that will change.

| OK, CC, we'll pretend you are an "Independent" who just can't get over Bush and who thinks what we have have in the White House now is better. Helps explain why you didn't understand the significance of the poll numbers , which incidentally, you brought up first to make a point about how lost the Republicans are. Have a good day and rest easy knowing we have a good flycatcher in charge -that accomplishment did impress me, by the way. I might end up being disillusioned later by finding the little critter was actually a plant like his 'impartial media' questioners and stoned on Raid, but , for now, I've found something about the man to be impressed about....

You almost have it, only in this case the American people paid first and then the Revolution happened last November.

Hb, another pat on the back from one of the lemmings I see. As usual you were the one dredging up meaningless poll statistics to begin with but when they don't favor your Republican slanted view you choose to label them meaningless. You and your posse are always anxious to dismiss King Georges atrocities while he was in office as something from the past not to be dwelled on yet you have no problem siting B. Clinton when you think it furthers your point and now you regress all the way back to the 70's & 80's in an attempt to justify your post. Give me a break.
Since I'm Independent I'm not ten points ahead by any reasoning, but I am part of the 31% either side needs to get elected.
By any nonpartisan reasoning Obama is still Nationally quite a bit more popular than any Republican and as long as they have pillars of virtue like Sanford he will remain so. You are correct (even a stopped clock is correct twice a day) with your assessment of voters coming away from the "dark side" in the voting booth and that is exactly what they did last November.
If we have a total incompetent in the White House now he pales in comparison to the previous buffoons ineptitude.Last edited on Fri Jun 26th, 2009 04:24 pm by counting coup

CC, you do have the typical lefty tendency to grab what you deem a meaningful statistic and wave it around as if it actually meant something. Let me hep you jest a bit on party preference polls...
On March 9, 2009 , Harris released their latest preference poll which showed [as you almost got correct] 26% of the respondents identified themselves as Republicans, 31% said they were Independents and something like 36% said they were Democrats. The other 7% weren't sure who they were.
So, by your reasoning you are 10 points ahead right? Well, the bad news is that the Dems were 20 points ahead back in the late 70's early 80's and even when all the Republican presidents were elected in the last decades , the Democrats were never less popular than the Republicans as far as party preference. Maybe that's because some misguided folks think it's noble to claim to be a Democrat [Champion of the Little Man and all that] but when in the voting booth they come away from the Dark Side. If we didn't have so many people that weren't happy with McCain as the Republican choice last time, that would have been proven again, I'm sure, but sad fact is we now have a total incompetent in the White House being slobbered over by the press and a his groupies... Notice I didn't say who those were..

| Ah, HB he's not my hero but is head and shoulders above the previous abomination. According to the polls his rating on the handling of the economy is below 50% but the same polls would tell you that the entire Republican party rating is below 25% and not rising due to the folly of their so called leadership. I suppose that would mean that 75% of the "wise ones" still scorn the polluted side of the isle. Maybe you consider that positive but then you have a very low starting point to rise above.

Since academia,as you put it, has the ability to indoctrinate our children from the early years they should be vetted more carefully. I'm sure this particular idiot includes your so called "big lies" that you think GWB made, in his teaching platform.I wonder what kind of crap he teaches about B Hussein O??

| Ah, CC, the wise ones scorning the Dark Side grow by the day. Your hero is now in negative approval territory and your only comeback is to try to dredge up another weak argument about a past president. Focus on the train wreck you elected and try to make something positive of that, -as if you can.

PtG, speaking of conjoined what we have here is a set of conjoined quadruplets that get sooooo much pleasure out of patting each other on the "back" for their inventive conspiracy theories it makes one wonder if you are all one person.
Oh, I almost forgot the new little fledgling recruit. I wonder how many post names the webmaster allows out of one computer?

Well, the world is ready for some good original stuff from the oppnents of the Dark Side. Grasp pen and set the readers straight. Don't bother trying to make sense of what our Smyrna history teacher rants about, bring in the fresh perspectives on what is happening in the world. Our dippy CIC and his sidekick Tonto, er Biden, give us enough material every day to outrage most sensible people.

Why the repost by DSN since this was published in May of this year and this forum had a discussion about his S**T. DSN doesn't have anything else to print?????
This person gets paid?? Thanks Cobra for the video on the indoctriation practices from UD.

The article that you refer to in the DSN this day (Tues 6/23/09) was written by Adjunct Professor Daniel Pritchett. Here is my response and an explanation:
Forced Communist Indoctrination on College Campus
By itooktheredpill
First, watch this: Video: Orwell at Delaware
Then realize where that indoctrination program comes from…
It is the same as the Program of the Communist Party USA, which mentions variations on the word “race” (racial, racism, racist) 124 times and variations on the word “oppress” (oppression, oppressed) 116 times and carries the same theme: that white male capitalists are racist oppressors and the system (capitalism) must be dismantled.
Communist Bill Ayers said, “education is the motor-force of revolution“.
It’s no surprise then that so many Communists are college educators, indoctrinating today’s youth. Last edited on Tue Jun 23rd, 2009 05:59 pm by Cobra

The article starts with economic doctrine, segues into law, then begins to rant about things obvously unknown to the writer, like conservative beliefs; then turns to personal attacks on VP Cheney and Governor Perry. Mind, this from an Adjunct Professor of American History which only proves the old saw "History is writen by liberals.
Take his comment about guns in national parks where he compares national parks to Disney World and Busch Gardens. The writer probably was never faced with a raging moose or bear in either place. The same is not to be said of hiking back woods in pristine, wilderness parks.
Publication of drivel such as this is leading us to fascist totalitarianism which is the real threat to the republic that our forefathers warned us about. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but we must never blindly accept "the big lie" espoused from one who pretends to teach the truth!
Beware the wolf clothed in the sheepskin of academia!
