So says the person that writes left-wing propaganda posts. Just because Zibby is upset that Fox doesn't ratify his biases doesn't make Fox biased. You can argue that Fox is slanted right, but I challenge you to show me just ONE MAJOR STORY that Fox got wrong. Zibby doesn't know the difference between a news reporter and a commentator. Glenn Beck, Rush, Keith Obermann these people do not "cover news", they are COMMENTATORS by their own admission. They are openly stating "this is my point of view". BTW, in my opinion, this entire ACORN scandal has relegated the other news organizations into insignificance. You've got CNN, MSNBC, and the networks all demanding investigations for any and every Republican offense including jaywalking. And here ACORN is a major Democratic support organization that has received millions of dollars of government money, multiple accusations of voter fraud, proven embezzlement of funds by senior executives and relatives... ACORN was guilty of one of the largest cases of voter fraud in U.S. history - having submitted thousands of bogus voter-registration forms. During the 1980's and '90's, ACORN illegally seized private property, physically harassed people, and committed outright extortion. For example, in 1985, ACORN illegally seized 25 abandoned buildings owned by New York City and installed squatters as residents so that these people could vote as Democrats. All of this, and more, was done out of a sense of corrupt entitlement by the Democratic party that have openly spat on the Liberal principles that they were once known for. Let me make myself clear - I believe that there is nobility in the Traditional Liberalism of the 1970's. "I may not agree with what you say, but I will fight for your right to say it". "They will know us by our methods", "Our ends are reflected in our means". I look at today's Democratic Party - especially the daily corruption I see here in Massachusetts - and I see Democrats pretending to believe in those principles but instead manipulating good-natured liberals so that they can gain POWER. And the proof is on ACORN. Now that it's public and obvious that ACORN has been an institutionally corrupt organization - corrupt from the very TOP - and that the Democrats have used this evil organization of community organizers for thier own corrupt ends - after a long history of financial corruption and cover-up scandals - and NOW, these latest videos - in the face of widespread voter outrage, Washington Democrats are pretending to ignore these scandals. PLEASE explain to me how Fox News is biased in covering this when these teenage videographers approached most major new outlets, and only Fox agreed to cover their story??? The public outrage over this is palatable. Democratic voters are demanding that the DNC clean house. Any news outlet that has not treated this story with the seriousness it deserves is going to become marginalized into insignificance. and what is ACORN doing to these videographer? Suing them. The idea here is to cripple these people with crushing legal fees so as to ruin their lives. The new motto of the Democratic party is: "The DNC. Support us - or we will destroy you".
Update: Obama has bounced off the 50% floor once again. He's back up to 54% and still has yet to fall under 50%. Not bad. I really think the right wingers have used up all of their ammunition on nonsense which is really dumb in the long run, because if they ever do have something legitimate to complain about, no one will take them seriously. Remember that story about the little boy who cried wolf? It applies here.
The shame is, that the wolf really is attacking, and everyone is too blind and stubborn to realize the little boy running around with half his legged chewed off.
Really??? Rasmussen has President Obama's approval rating for Oct 2 at 49% and dropping. 54%??? Zibby must be cherry-picking his numbers again, eh?
The latest DailyKos poll numbers really show the whole story about Obama's popularity. Obama remains very popular every except the south. America is really split right now between the south and everywhere else. Check this out: “According to this tracker, the GOP has a net favorability of +14 in the South. In the rest of the nation, their “next-best†region is the West, where the GOP stands at a net favorability of -60.†It's clear that the south is just operating in an entirely different world than the rest of the country. These are people that actually respect the Republican party. And these are the people that give Obama 25% favorability while the people who can actually read in the Northeast give him 80% favorability. BTW, I live in the South (technically.) And all of the stereotypes are true. Most southerners are idiots.
DailyKos? An admittedly left-wing propaganda website? Zibby, please tell me that you are joking by attempting to quote that website's poll.
DailyKos's poll is ran by Research2000 which is a well respected polling service. It is not a biased poll (like the Republican leaning Rasmussen is.) Obviously DailyKos itself is a liberal site. "Liberal" meaning that they live in reality rather than a fantasy world like right wingers do. --- BTW, DailyKos' numbers for Obama (53%) are actually below Gallup's (54%) today... so much for bias!
Why do you claim that Research2000 is "well respected"? I've never seen anybody quote them, not CNN or Fox or Bloomberg - they all quote Rasmussen. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!! (Whew!) Oh, wow. Thanks for that laugh, Zibby. You really do have a sense of humor, don't you?
Duh unemployment is high and people expect to have someone else take care of them which is why they are unemployed. No person can help you out except yourself we should have a president that says I will do nothing for you take care of yourself and then maybe the fat lazy bastards will either do something or simply fade away into obscurity Follow the Nike slogan of "Just do it" and get off your ass
A Fordham University professor examined the 23 polls for the 2008 Presidential Election and rated the national pollsters on their accuracy. The results are here Rasmussen Reports was without a doubt the most accurate poll. If you ignore ties, Research2000, which is affiliated with DailyKos, was way down as #10 out of 23. It's an inaccurate poll biased towards Democrats, which is why Zibby chose to ignore the respected accuracy of Rasmussen, and quoted the highly inaccurate and liberal Research2000 instead. To paraphrase Zibby, "Liberal" meaning that Research2000's numbers are a fantasy rather than reality.
Come on Corwin, you know as well as I do that the "most accurate polls" are the ones that support one side.
Still sinking, still stinking. I think SNL summed up why. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/10/04/snl-obama_n_308979.html
Hey, try to copy from text from the Huffington Post article then paste it into an email and see what happens!
Am I missing something? It's been hovering around 50% since July. This is October... Even without the benefit of a major catastrophe to bring us all together like 9/11. Even with an incredibly polarizing health care debate going on. Even with a large chunk of the population that will literally admit to your face they can't accept him as their President because he is black... He is still sitting at 50%. Did I miss the actual cause for celebration? Again, please wake me the day Obama is considered one of the top 5 worst presidents in U.S. history. <-- please note the ironic link to rasmussen.
Apparently he's gone up a bit. http://news.aol.com/article/president-barack-obamas-job-approval/581625 Please don't accuse me of being a communist for posting this. kthxbai
