All of them? Looks more or less like half mabey a little weighted to
the left, but easily explained by the misconceptions and outright lies
we have been fed by a admittedly corrupt and bias main stream media..
When you consider the propoganda shoved down our throats the last
couple of years, the numbers aren't really all that bad. But I am sure
your party of intolerance and hate will dismiss the other half of the
country to suit your own selfish needs...

You are the poster boy for digesting misconceptions and outright lies.

"All" of them? Of course not, but within limitations the percentages in
the new Gallup survey...in all cases, the majority of Americans.

Social conservatism, the crap you claim to believe, is waning, by the
way. Take a look at some of the voting maps...if you know how to do that.

Obama will be lucky if he finishes term one. We need to get people
working again earning fair wages doing meaningful work. Obama isn't
about that. He's about spreading the wealth with no return on
investment. Recipe for disaster.

I never hired illegals for my business. Only hired illegals when I
contracted with the State EDD for some laborers to move stuff at the inlaws
house. The legals did not show up. Your union still supporting all those
illegals in the building trades? As long as they pay union dues, they are
OK?
