Quote:They have ignored most all polls with overwhelming public support so it is a waste of my time.
Overwhelming support of what? It would not be Healthcare. It would not be no photo IDs for voting, and it would not be gun control.
Support for raising the minimum wage, support for gun control, support for same sex marriage and now even support for Obama Care and so on, once the American public waded through all the Republican scare tactics and lies surrounding low cost and reliable healthcare, err, 8 million have signed up mostly young people. ...
If you don't think people support Obama Care then why aren't the Republicans running on an anti Obama Care platform? They know the people don't favor their position on many fronts so all they have left is to lie and intimidate..
And there is also widespread support even among Republicans on raising taxes on the very rich. Why should the very rich amid record profits get entitlements (food stamps) and not pay taxes like the the HARD WORKING middle class?
90 percent of American voters favor policies that would help women get equal pay for equal work, and that would raise wages for women and families...
You know, that equal pay for women bill that every single Republican (including the women) voted against two weeks ago?
48 percent of Americans said they think gun laws should be made more strict, while 16 percent said they should be made less strict and 29 percent said they preferred no change.
(76%) say they would vote for raising the minimum wage to $9 per hour (it is currently $7.25) in a hypothetical national referendum, a five-percentage-point increase since March. About one-fifth (22%) would vote against this.
House Republicans Unanimously Vote Down Minimum Wage Increase

Fifty-two percent of those surveyed said they would be more likely to support a candidate who backs immigration reform compared with 18 percent who said they would be less likely. On the flip side, 54 percent said they would be less likely to vote for a candidate who opposes immigration reform while only 17 percent said they would be more likely.

House GOP ignores immigration reform at its peril

Sixty percent of poll respondents said they supported higher taxes on annual incomes above $250,000, with 37 percent opposed.
Taxing The Rich Still Popular With American Public

And you don't like President Obama for what reason? Because Obama is catering to the needs of WE THE PEOPLE?
Who cares what you think CJ...
Gallup: Americans Overwhelmingly Favor Clean Energy, Efficiency Over Fossil Fuels
http://www.dailykos.com/story/2014/04/02/1289252/--Gallup-Americans-Overwhelmingly-Favor-Clean-Energy-Efficiency-Over-Fossil-Fuels
So this is why the Republican refuse to shift the 'food stamps' (American middle class tax payer money) from dirty energy to clean energy.
Yet you have nothing to say about that CJ?
You have no credibility and again who really cares what you think CJ?
Vote these dead beat, looking for a handout, Republicans out 2014 and restore America to its former glory...
Domestic job incentives
Did I mention that corporations currently get 'food stamps' (tax-breaks) for every job they move abroad...
Do you think the Americans favor this?
Well the Republicans blocked President Obama from reversing these tax incentives for moving jobs overseas. So the corporations are still getting tax-breaks 'food stamps' for moving jobs overseas thanks to the Republicans and their obstruction.
Do you really think a majority or Americans favor tax-breaks for moving jobs overseas?
Tax-breaks for outsourcing was one of the first things President Obama tried to reverse.
Not to mention how hard the Republicans fought President Obama for Wall Street reform.
The economy is only doing well because President Obama has mobilized all his influence to circumvent Republican obstruction.
Do you think the American people were in favor of lost revenues of billions of their HARD EARNED tax dollars for the Republican government shut down?
The survey highlights just how badly the GOP hard-liners and the leaders who went along with them misjudged the public mood. In the aftermath, eight in 10 Americans say they disapprove of the shutdown. Two in three Republicans or independents who lean Republican share a negative view of the impasse. And even a majority of those who support the tea party movement disapprove.
Poll: Major damage to GOP after shutdown, and broad dissatisfaction with government (because of the GOP)
