I am? I could have sworn that the Commander in Chief is President Obama... Seems to me that any shutdowns clearly outline his leadership failure. If he really wanted the shutdown over - he could have easily had it a week ago.

The thing about the TEA PARTY members I know is they don't seem interested in answering polls. We will speak in the voting booth.

Worked real good for you in 2012, right?

Oh really --- who owns the last gov't shutdown?

It's always the President --- Average Americans are growing tired of all of this and they see that ALL of Washington is a mess --- the leader of the mess is ONE MAN...

Harry Reid when asked about saving one child with cancer equated that cancer stricken child with 1100 furloughed workers who "had problems of their own".

The House passed a bill that would have kept the funding for the research.

Harry and the Dems fucked the research bill over.

 

[mack20]

Tinydancer - what PDF are you looking at?

Because it says that there were 800 interviews right across the top:

Interviews: 800 Adults, including 240 cell phone only respondents

Did you think that the 48 male/52 female percentage breakdown at the top was a total participant #?

It even says (right on the first page, and near the top and in bold):

Please note: all results are shown as percentages unless otherwise stated.

Did you even actually read the PDF?

The House does not get to throw a tantrum and shut down the government and then only fund the things that are popular. They wanted this shutdown, they have to deal with the upsetting reality that there are bad consequences to their strategy.

John McCain Blames Tea Party For Government Shutdown

Mccain blames the Tea Party for the shutdown

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) blamed tea party Republicans for the government shutdown during a CNN interview on Wednesday, saying Congress never had a shot at defunding Obamacare.

“We started this on a fool’s errand, convincing so many millions of Americans and our supporters that we could defund Obamacare," McCain said.

While McCain didn't name names, he faulted members of Congress -- "tea partiers specifically" -- for wrongly telling "millions of Americans" that Obamacare can be defunded.

That "obviously wouldn’t happen until we had 67 Republican senators to override a presidential veto," McCain said.

And of course people are calling him a RINO - what people? Why, the TPM, of course.

The Republicans called. They still want their party back.

Yeah. I love going thru the "attached" PDF to the poll itself. Not what the sponsor of the poll cherry picks to run their headline on.

Because this is the first time anyone in government ever accomplished their goals by defunding something the law called for ....... (hint: no it isn't)



P.s., there are good consequences too. Not every poll is providing fodder for Democrat propaganda. A lot of Republicans are fired up that their representatives are finally representing.
