Public Not Buying O's Story - Rasmussen Poll
2009-07-20
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows that 30% of the nation's voters now Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Thirty-seven percent (37%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of --7 (see trends).
Go look - the graph is very dramatic, indeed.
Voters see cost, not universal coverage, as the biggest health care concern Sixty-seven percent (67%) say that people with chronic conditions such as diabetes should not pay higher health insurance premiums. Half (50%) now oppose creation of a public insurance company to compete with private insurers. Seventy-eight percent (78%) believe that health care reform is likely to lead to middle class tax hikes.
Keep it up, Joe and O.

yep, good enough for the PA Assembly but not for the Proprieters & the Penn family - this smells like the 1760s all over again.

#9  I have 4 extra tickets for the Robbie Knievel (son of Evil Knievel) event at the Ford Center, this weekend in Beaumont, Texas, if anybody wants them. He's going to try to jump 1,000 Obama supporters with a bulldozer.

Should be a good time.................

#4  no mo uro, actually, I think they believe they are gonna get all that plus a hospital room that rivals a four-star hotel, complete with valet service and hot, sexy docs/nurses. After all, isn't that what all hospital rooms look like on TV (especially those idiotic daytime dramas they watch in between episodes of Oprah and The View)?

#2  It's been the truth all along that about 98% of any support for socializing health care has not been about helping "The Children™ " or "The Needy™ " but rather has been about a fantasy by the supporters that they can get all the health care they get now for a lot less money, so that they can have more money to spend on booze, clothes, and entertainment.

That's just how it is, any deniers are just plain liars.
