The woman is not one to ever allow reality in the front door.

She didn’t believe she would lose the House either or the tea party movement was real or that she was briefed by the CIA. Yep, perfect representative for democratic members of the House, she’s a keeper!

I believe she lies, maybe even to herself.

You didn’t really expect her to listen to us, did you? People who have an agenda don’t let facts get in the way. The propaganda and entertainment media have proven this many times. Can anyone tell me of one movie that told about an actual event that told it as it actually happened? They can’t even get the fictional movies right. One example is Forrest Gump. In the book, nobody died.

The polls being used to support the assertion that a majority of American’s favor repeal Health Care Reform are very misleading, as this article points out.

When you examine the responses to questions 65 through 67 of the New York Times being referred to in the video up above, for example, it immediately becomes apparent that the assertion isn’t simply misleading–it’s dead wrong.

Hey, if republicans want to try to run the full repeal ball downfield on the assumption that a majority of American voters strongly support the effort, they should go for it. What the poll is really saying suggests that the voter response next election could be interesting.

It’s not Nancy Pelosi who seems to be living in some alternate reality.

That’s cute Greg, how nice of you to use exteremly biased polling data by a group of people PROVEN to have skewered their sample group to be majority of Democrats. Totaly not biased and fairly honest sampling that represents almost 150 million people that have almost half of that vote Republican… OH wait, as of

Rasmussen: http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/current_events/healthcare/health_care_law

55 percent of the American population support Repeal while 40 percent oppose from Rasumessen.

As for Gallup:

http://www.gallup.com/poll/145496/favor-oppose-repealing-healthcare-law.aspx

46 percent favor Repeal and 40 Percent oppose.

So far two offical scientific polling groups contradict the opinionated sideshow jobs of yours that are, “deemed” polls.

As for the The Plum Line, it was blown out of the water in claims of skwered data by Newsbusters.org and other blogspheres for pointing out the data collections and supposed “skewering to favor repeal” happened in heavily Democrat districts. To the chagrin of the claims of skewering to repeal, trying to use a CBS poll or for that matter a Fox News Poll is not vialble to the argument at hand. Trying to use a news outlet poll that was taken from its viewership does not reflect the rest of American opinion, it is why Gallup, Rasmussen, and other Sociology groups are more of a solid casepoint to highlight American collective opinion versus a large Business (ironicly you seem not to be fearful of) and its polls.

Oh and Newsbusters found this a bit interesting after digging though raw data dumps (which are mandated by laws) of the supposed various polls that disfavor repeal:

And oh isn’t this just a lovely bunch of Coconuts if you’re going to use News polls:

The same WaPo that you use to argue against the notion that Repeal is favored contradicts your arguement greatly.

Oh and I greatly loved these bits from the WaPo:

23. (If the health care reform law does not change, in the long run…) Do you think the health care reform law is more likely to help or hurt the economy overall?

1/16/11

39 Percent say Help
54 Percent say Hurt
3 Percent say Neither
4 Percent had no opinion.

24. (If the health care reform law does not change, in the long run…) Do you think the health care reform law is more likely to create jobs or cut the number of jobs in the country?

1/16/11

38 Percent say Create Jobs
46 Percent say Cut Number of Jobs
6 Percent Say Neither
9 Percent had no opinion

25. (If the health care reform law does not change, in the long run…) Do you think the health care reform law is more likely to increase or decrease the federal deficit?

1/16/11:

62 percent say increase in Federal Deficit
29 percent say decrease in Federal Deficit
2 Percent say neither to Federal Deficit
7 Percent had no opinion.

This really doesn’t help your use of the WaPo…
