For years, liberals have characterized pro-life individuals as fringe “religious nutjobs.” According to the latest Gallop poll, these nutjobs now constitute the majority of Americans.
If this many Americans are pro-life, why are tax dollars being used to fund abortions? It’s equally concerning that liberals consistently suggest their opposition must be crazy. Why do they fear intellectual discourse? In reality, the pro-life movement has never been a fringe group of extremists.
Whether it’s abortion or any other issue, know that you are not alone in your beliefs. Instead of using logical arguments, liberals will try to alienate you by saying you are an extremist. Just remember that liberals lie.
CNBC’s Rick Santelli said that Obama’s bailout plan is promoting “bad behavior” and correctly pointed out the American people do not support foreclosure bailouts. He even called for a “Chicago Tea Party,” since our elected officials clearly aren’t representing us.
CNBC did a poll and 90% of the 63,000 Americans surveyed said they agree: they don’t like Obama’s plan.
Politicians are not representing their constituents anymore; they are representing the lobbyists and special interest groups that keep them in power.
Even the high school students Obama visited this week realize his plan is a bad idea:
“The spending bill he just passed is just progressing the Democratic agenda rather than addressing the economic issues in the country.” said senior Maaike Albach.
“This puts us more into debt,” said Daudfar, 18. “It’s a horrible situation we’re in.”
“I think it’s cool he’s here,” said Miller, 18. “I just don’t believe all the things he’s telling us.”
Based on poll results and numerous surveys of the media, it seems apparent that uninformed voters and biased news sources won the election for Barack Obama.
First, it’s worth noting that many Obama voters were so politically uninformed it’s embarrassing:
57.4% of Obama voters could not correctly say which party controls congress, and more than half of these voters incorrectly thought Republicans control congress. Statistically, this performance is worse than random guessing!
More than a third of Obama voters didn’t know who Nancy Pelosi or Harry Reid are. One democrat described Nancy Pelosi as “pretty cool,” but was unable to describe her roll in the government. The poll also indicated that substantially more republican voters were informed about Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid.
Secondly, polls have revealed that many democrats knew very little about their own candidate:
88.4% could not correctly identify Obama as the candidate that said his policies would likely bankrupt the coal industry and make energy rates skyrocket. Again, this is statistically worse than random guessing.
82.6% could not correctly say that Obama won his first election by getting his opponents kicked off the ballot.
56.1% of Obama voters didn’t know that Obama began his political career at the home of Bill Ayers, an unrepentant terrorist who said his bombings “didn’t do enough.”
Conversely, here’s what Obama voters knew about Sarah Palin:
94% of Obama voters correctly identified Palin as the candidate with a pregnant teenage daughter.
86% of Obama voters identified Palin as the candidate who spent $150,000 on a campaign wardrobe.
86.9 % of Obama voters thought that Palin said she could see Russia from her “house.” However, this quote actually came from Tina Fey on Saturday Night Live.
How did so many American’s gather such slanted knowledge? A study performed by a writer for the Washington Post may contain a few clues:
“[Washington Post] readers have been consistently critical of the lack of probing issues coverage and what they saw as a tilt toward Democrat Barack Obama. My surveys, which ended on Election Day, show that they are right on both counts.”
This “news” paper published 246% more laudatory opinion pieces exalting Barack Obama than the number of opinion pieces in favor of John McCain. And this only scratches the surface. The Post also had more stories dedicated to Obama, published more photos of Obama, and contained closer coverage of the Obama campaign. Simultaneously, the number of negative pieces released about McCain exceeded the number of negative Obama pieces by 181%. At least their slogan doesn’t proclaim The Post is fair and balanced.
This revolting degree of bias was exhibited by virtually every media outlet in America, according to Journalism.org:
