Attentive Americans Solidly Back Jobs Bill
While fewer than half of all Americans favor passage of a jobs bill similar to Obama's, a solid majority of Americans who are following news of the bill very closely, 57%, want to see it passed.
Those who are not following it too closely also tend to favor the bill's passage, 43% vs. 26%, with a fairly large percentage having no opinion. The majority of those who say they are not following news about the Obama jobs bill at all have no opinion on the issue, with the rest closely divided but tilting against the bill.
Independents Tilt in Favor of Bill
The Gallup survey describes the bill as "similar to the one President Obama has proposed," making it not surprising that Democrats strongly support it, while Republicans oppose it. Still, Democrats' support is more widespread than Republicans' opposition. This -- combined with independents' greater likelihood to favor than to oppose the bill -- results in the overall 45% to 32% tilt in support among all Americans.
The jobs bill President Obama proposed has many parts to it, and most Americans at this point no doubt do not understand fully what would be involved if it were to be passed either in part or as a whole.

the dick-drip OP is also a liar. The thread title should have the word SIMILAR in it, like the question in the poll he linked to.
Dumb. Ass.
I wonder if the dick-drip OP realizes there was language in the bill (now dead because Reid couldn't get the senate voted it needed) that would tax charitable contributions?
That means fewer handouts dick-drip OP! You for that?
Look at those numbers. Of independents, 44% support, 32% oppose Obama's jobs bill. You guys are toast.
Oops, looks like the GOP is on the wrong side...again.
Americans Favor Obama Jobs Plan by 45% to 32%

51 out of 53 Dems voted in favor of the bill.
The legislation, announced with fanfare by the president at a joint session of Congress last month, fell 10 votes short of the 60 needed to overcome procedural hurdles in the Senate.
The vote in favor of advancing the bill on Tuesday was 50 to 49.

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/15/u...ongress-balking-at-obamas-jobs-bill.html?_r=1WASHINGTON — President Obama anticipated Republican resistance to his jobs program, but he is now meeting increasing pushback from his own party. Many Congressional Democrats, smarting from the fallout over the 2009 stimulus bill, say there is little chance they will be able to support the bill as a single entity, citing an array of elements they cannot abide.
