So ... are they valid, or are they not? Have you heard any sure word on that? Also, comments were closed on the article that contained the poll as to whether welfare recipients or politicians should be drug tested. However, the results showed 62% felt welfare recipients should NOT be tested, while 38% voted they should. As to politicians, however, 100% of those voting voted yes for testing. Interesting. So, could we draw a conclusion of trust for welfare recipients and distrust for politicians? Or a bias for welfare recipients and prejudice against politicians? Or is this perhaps a class and economic status issue? Ah yes, who can say, but it's certainly interesting to think about what the votes actually mean. Always love to take your polls and think about the results. :) I’ve read repeatedly that petitions done through email are not given credence, and yet I still see them being listed at blogs.

Hey, Terry, if you make it a point to put links in to support your talking points you will find that they are bogus and will save yourself the embarrassment of posting them over and over again, unless that's your sole purpose.

And I voted and found out that I was in the top 100%. Had to laugh ... I was so excited until I found out I was the only one who'd voted!

I don't agree with what has happened to our economy but we can all blame congress for not being competent, over many years and not making the right decisions on issues but making them instead on what is expedient for their constituents. Do you really think that the far left people like Obama has the right answers? He has lied from the beginning of his campaign. He has had 3 years of failure, has had a Democratic congress for the first year or so and still has been a failure. All the conservatives want to do now is cut spending. If you can not see that this is the answer to our failed budget, you are not only blind but ignorant. Spending is what got us into this. To bash the Republican party is equally ignorant. The ONLY reason Bill Clinton had a balanced budget is that the Republican congress sent his bloated budget back and passed their own, but he gets credit for it. Look it up! Clinton is also responsible for our trade disaster with China. Free trade with China is absurd with their government subsidizing commodities and their cheap labor eating our lunch. Obama wants to pass this healthcare bill which will bankrupt our economy but the dems don't care. They just want everyone to get ALL the benefits they want. Take a good long look at Greece, Italy and Spain. They all had a very liberal government which spent them into oblivion. So, being conservative with money is just common sense. You can not spend what you don't have. Now, let's take the unions with their collective bargaining. That's fine for the private sector, but in government you can not have it as eventually, there will not be enough tax money to pay for pensions, CPI increases, the usual government wastes, excessive overtime and all the perks that they get without bankrupting the government, whether city, county or state governments. Why do you think that the Federal government does not allow collective bargaining? The Tea Party was a non violent movement against more taxes and cuts in spending? Now aren't they horrible for pushing these ideas? Now look at the Wall Street Protestors? There are all kinds of problems with their movement across the nation. Why is that? I would agree with their protest against Wall Street, as those greedy bastards are mostly responsible for our problems, however, the people protesting there are a bunch of misfits with all kinds of liberal extreme agendas and are destroying their cause. So, wake up and stop bashing the conservatives, we are trying to save the country from spending freaks. - Terry David,

They are waking up to the fact that they are the 99% and it's us against the 1% intent on taking over our country and turning us all into slaves. You know, slaves like wal-mart workers, stuck in a dead-end job with no hope of improving your life. It’s comforting to see how many ex-tea-baggers there are participating in these 99% movements.

I don't think the average Democratic voter is inclined to win at any cost. We want to put some pressure on Obama to be the president America elected him to be. Are you saying you think we should drop him entirely? Well, CLW, I agree with Jerry. I don’t think the average Democratic voter is inclined to win at any cost.
