If this is the law of the land...why in a republic (little r) and as republicans, do we allow mere POLITICIANS to the right to use a "title of office" for the rest of their lives as if it were de facto a patent of nobility. Because, as republicans, this should NOT be the case...just saying...

CNN Poll Says Most American Think Recession NOT Over

A new poll by CNN and published in LA Times says most American's think the recession is far from over. This despite what our political betters, aka the "political elite" of Washington DC, tell us...

a new poll indicates it's gonna take a whole lot more than repeated rhetoric to....convince skeptical Americans not feeling the $787 billion economic stimulus. The new CNN / Opinion Research Poll finds an overwhelming majority of Americans see the country as good and stuck in a recession and have no doubts about it.

Fully 86% of the 1,012 adults surveyed said the country remained mired in a recession; 13% disagreed. Seventy-seven percent call it a severe or moderate recession; only 10% light. More than half said their economic position had not improved in the past year and nearly 40% said it was worse.

Gee, the people of this country are obviously not nearly as smart as those in DC. We must genuinely be a violently dumb mob of NAZI's...what do you think?
