Occupy Wall Street my ass:
Since Obama has been President the percentage of Democrats who say Big Government is more of a threat to this country has risen 16% to 48%. Percentage of Democrats who view Big Business as the biggest threat? 44%.
Americans’ concerns about the threat of big government continue to dwarf those about big business and big labor, and by an even larger margin now than in March 2009. The 64% of Americans who say big government will be the biggest threat to the country is just one percentage point shy of the record high, while the 26% who say big business is down from the 32% recorded during the recession. Relatively few name big labor as the greatest threat.
But hey, let’s Occupy Wall Street!
This part of the poll has been getting a lot of play all day today:
Yup, dead last…and the honesty and integrity of our elected leaders?
I wonder who Obama will blame next for this turn of events?
I’m thinking Bush again.
See author page
This article is a joke. Funny how the average American “fears big government”, yet given an opportunity to remove big goverment the average idiot American voter routinely votes for…..(drum-roll)…BIG GOVERNMENT!
Let’s face it, America has become a leftists kleptocracy.
This poll reminds of those bogus polls on abortion. Poll after poll routinely show Americans want either abortion outlawed or heavily restricted. Yet, when given a chance to vote for pro-life candidates Americans vote hard- left on the abortion issue.
Facts are terrible things to argue with!
@Ivanski: You said:
It’s so nice when you show your true feelings about your fellow Americans, Ivanski.
Newt-Romney = Big Washington-Big Wall Street. This is precisely what got us into this mess.
Rick Perry is neither Washington nor Wall Street. He is the only convictional constitutional conservative with the record to back it up. 40% of all the jobs created in the entire US were created in Texas in the last 2 years. Under Governor Perry’s watch, low taxes, low regulation and tort reform have businesses flocking to Texas. His convictions are genuine and his instincts are conservative. He is married to his high school sweetheart and he is the only candidate running who volunteered for the military achieving the rank of Captain in the US Air Force. He understands the dire nature of the problems this country faces and he has a proven record that he has solutions.
And he’s against enforcing the Laws of the Republic.
Thus, he is disqualified.
NEXT?
@Ivan: Let me guess…Ron Paul?
they are all freaking up in the WHITE HOUSE with a CANDIDATE telling it like it is, THE CONGRESS IS ALL FREAKING UP JUST THINKING ABOUT IT TOO.
THEY are scare to death of RICK PERRY coming in the WHITE HOUSE WITH HIS CREW,
to fix AMERICA, did you check the propaganda on YAHOO against him.
you know where it come from, don’t you. and the other medias same selling pitch it’s outrageous
YOU KNOW what it mean also, he is going to deliver every words he promissed to do.
AMERICA NEED TO SURVIVE OBAMA’S DESTRUCTION STILL AT WORK.
IF any AMERICAN, want to continue to survive, they better think of changing the GOVERNEMENT,
NOT THE WALL STREET. before OBAMA BIG SPENDER HABITS
EMPTY the bucket DRY
@Tercel:
Conventional politics is moot. No one running has a clue how to solve this problem.
@ilovebeeswarzone:
Bees..the all caps is very annoying. It is considered rude as it is yelling.
Thanks buddy.
IVAN
the CANDIDATES are smarter than you, they have clues to fix the problems which OBAMA don’t have, the only problem is people like you,
who think they have a right to disrespect them, any time you want, and insult their intelligence, it show you’re lack of it,
along with those who insult the CANDIDATES,
if they are running it’s for the real reason, , they are true AMERICANS DEDICATED TO SAVE AMERICA FROM THE COMMUNIST MARXIST IDEOLOGY, they refuse to let their children be indoctrinated in an ideology that is against the CONSTITUTION AND THE BILL OF RIGHT,
AGAINST THE FLAG OF AMERICA, AGAINST THE KIND OF DICTATORIAL REGIME BEING INSTALL SLOWLY right under the people’s nose, AGAINST THE FREEDOM OF THE PEOPLE OF THIS GREAT NATION, they want a GLOBAL REGIME FOR THIS COUNTRY, THEY want to sell AMERICA TO MAKE HER CHANGE NAME, and be run by a WORLD ORGANZSATION INSTALLING THEIR OWN CONSTITUTION, DESTROYING THE PILLARS OF AMERICA, and her roots to be replace by hater coming from afar to help destroy it faster, while the braves are fighting and dying to protect you rights, you take for granted?
THE CANDIDATES ARE AWARE OF THEIR MISSION AND THEY STILL WANT TO FIGHT FOR GAINING THE PRESIDENCY TO SAVE THE COUNTRY,
THEY DESERVE ALL THE RESPECT FROM THE PEOPLE, because they are all better than many of you who disrespect them, they are way up above , all of you. in spirit of their beloved AMERICA, and in mind power, what are you all ready to for your COUNTRY,
they are ready to fight for it,
@ilovebeeswarzone:
I admire, Bee, your optimism. I just don’t share it.
Yours in Christ, Ivan.
IVAN
you don’t share it, because you are desillusion, you lost the hope for fixing the impossible can be made possible by the right person in power, you gave up believing that a corrupt GOVERNMENT CANNOT be made to change into the GOVERNMENT OF THE PEOPLE, FOR THE PEOPLE ,IT wont if you don’t stand for the right to change the wrong, you are an AMERICAN, FIGHT FOR IT, IT’S CALLING ON YOU,
BECAUSE you got use to it, and it suits you for now, because you think IT will suit you in the future,
as it seems to do now,
well it doesn’t
look that way does it?
@ilovebeeswarzone:
What is it with you people here? Let’s look how I responded to your comments:
A nice, cogent, respectfully disagreeing comment on my behalf. Followed up with an insulting comment by Bees.
Of course, just like Mata, Aye, Hardright, etc. they feel like they have carte blanche to insult people-who disagree with them-all day long.
Why can’t you people disagree in a nice, calm manner?
If you want to see why the Republican Party is destroying itself, look in the mirror.
Honestly, you are nice people, but when given the anonymity of the internet something horrible happens to you.
Yours in Christ,
Ivan
@Ivan: I would say that there is room in that mirror for you as well, Ivan. You have done your share of bomb-throwing and insulting. Yet with you, it always seems to be the other person’s fault.
@ Ivan:
You’re against Perry’s views on immigration I take it? I’m pretty sure he has stated that his number one priority is to secure the border. What is to be done with the people already here is another question, and worthy of a debate. The immigration problem is a very large elephant, and you know how to eat an elephant….one bite at a time.
IVAN
I did not insult you,, I just point out the need to react, and do the right thing,
nothing wrong with it,
we have to shake the apathy [what ever the word mean]
and support instead of attack, the CANDIDATES;
which is to often done, and not productive;
they are listening to AMERICANS, they would prefer ideas more than being told negatives
about being just human. but they remain superior person which have ability to become good PRESIDENT, even with flaws,
that ‘s what you and other, must focus on.
bye
I think thats so unfair to carsalesmen/women to lump them in with politicians.
Gary G. Swenchonis
hi,
it just to prove how so many people buy on the OBAMA’s LIES along with his MEDIA,
repeated by talking heads on those YAHOO and FACE-BOOK CROWD, and whatever else.
many fools buy that crude, and repeat it cooked, ready to eat.
bye
IVAN
I cut down on caps, and you should have notice for sure,
but some words need cap on,
and who says that it’s rude anyway,
I never heard it, but I’m being careful anyway.
and at least I take advice, better than you.
bye
@ilovebeeswarzone: Bee! Your doing ok! Don’t worry about it. Just keep writing how you think and feel. Thats whats important Bee.
Gary G. Swenchonis
thank you,
I’m being careful to leave the caps, but I get carried away and forget them,
but I’m better bit by bit. but I know I cannot please all the people I keep attacking,
with the caps.
bye,
@ilovebeeswarzone: I agree beezy. Tell it like it is dear!!
anticsrocks
thank you , I’m working on improving myself on the keyboard,
I take advice, it help me to focus on the GRAMMER, NAH JUST KIDDING,
it’s not grammer, it’s grrramer,
bye
Obviously Lefties LOVE big government, the bigger, the better.
How could we have missed the editorial by Blood & Gore in the WSJ today?
That’s Generation Investment Management’s managing partner, David Blood and Generation Investment Management’s chairman, Al Gore.
Check out their title:
A Manifesto for Sustainable Capitalism
How businesses can embrace environmental, social and governance metrics.

Called for?
More governmental mandates on businesses.
@ilovebeeswarzone: No thanks necessar Bees! I have seen where you have improved. I enjoy reading your posts. you write from the heart, and you mean well. Keep it up!
Gary G. Swenchonis,
hi,
I will, because of you and others I consider my friends,
I also will take your advices, if I’m not correct on opinions
bye
@ilovebeeswarzone:
You’re a liar, sir. Let’s look at what you said earlier:
Or this gem:
Where the puck do you get off ripping me then having the balls to say you didn’t insult me???
Obviously Mata has done a whammy on you and taught you how to disrepect those you disagree with.
You’re a pucking liar.
Yours in Christ,
Ivan.
@Ivan:
Weird last words for that post, Ivan.
Weird in the sense that it flies in the face of the words of Jesus’ 1/2 brother, James at James 3.
Just because you use a “p” in place of the “f” you obviously meant doesn’t change your hypocrisy.
@Ivan… yo, a’hole. First of all, stop fixating on me, evoking my name when I virtually ignore you and your drivel in almost every thread. But no… I’m no where near you, and you find the need to insert your bizarre venom about me, or Aye, everywhere when not appropriate.
If you don’t want a response, then use some common sense. But then, since you obviously don’t have any, see if you can borrow some from anyone who may want to be within your vicinity physically. Personally, I can’t imagine a more distasteful experience. Life’s too short to waste around those like you with so much hate built up.
Secondly, Bees did NOT insult you. Perhaps you can’t translate her French to English since you’re a bleeping, soul’less amoeba, but let’s see if I can help.
Ms. Bees said:
I suspect your problem here is you saw her “desillusion”, and thought she was calling you “delusional”. Trust me, Ivan. I don’t hesitate to call you delusional. But Bees was saying you were “disillusioned” and “lost the hope for fixing the impossible”. If you don’t know what “disillusioned” means, I suggest you look it up… or hope that Santa brings you that dictionary for Christmas.
Considering you whine about everything under the sun, and hate everyone and everybody, I’d say she nailed you to a tee. And obviously put it more kindly than I would.
Actually, we do quite often. To those who deserve such a response, that is. But you always set the tone with your hatred and rudeness…. as you did with Bees here, escalating it to calling her a liar. Why? Simply because you’re too dense to read her words as she intended them. You deserve no such courtesy, and it’s unlikely you”ll ever see it from me.
Not once, but twice you felt the need to reference me in a derogatory manner, totally unprovoked.
I do believe I’ve managed to parse Bee’s sentence about your disillusionment with politics (both sides) in general… all of which was accurate and none of which was delivered with ‘tude until your predictable response.
You owe Bees an apology. And I’ll say again, if you are an example of the “christians” in your congregation, you are either a member of Obama’s ex-church, or you need to shop for a new pastor.
MATA,
yes I meant without illusion like you mentionned disillusion,
sorry YVAN FOR MY BAD,
THANK’S MATA FOR THE CORRECTION,
IVAN, and what do you mean I’m a puck? I never play with a puck in my life,
but I follow HOCKEY GAMES and always kept my eyes on their pucks. and sometimes heard them say FOR CHRIST SAKE, but they where praying while playing hockey
@Ivanski: You are pathetic, uninformed, and if the sum of your posts here at FA are any indicator, you are quite stupid.
Bees is not a male…that is why myself and others here address her as Ms. Beezy or Beezy my dear. Evidently in your reading you cherry pick just as much as you do when you think you are debating.
You are good for one thing little dude; you sure do provide some much needed chuckles. I can understand why you were afraid to debate me.
IVAN
I could have said instead those following;
dissociatize, disseminate, dissymmetrical, dissimilitude, dissimulate, disreputable, dissociate,
dissentient,.disquisition, disputation, dispassionate.
no I did not.
I think that you’re the one with a puck not me
@MataHarley:
I’m sorry, Mata, but your conduct is prima facie of what is wrong with the “conservative” movement on the internet. You engage, as you so adroitly have proven me correct, in ad hominem attacks constantly. We’ve all seen what you’ve just written. You do this over and over, day-in-and-day-out.
Mata, you’re better than that. There is no need to lower yourself into the gutter by calling me names like you’re in third-grade.
Attack my arguments all you like, but refrain from the personal attacks.
@anticsrocks:
Oh look! Another one of Mata’s confederates engaging in ad hominem attacks.
Can’t refute what I say, so you attack me personally.
Have a good weekend, and GO BRONCOS!!!
@Nan G:
Really? You know the definition of the word? Come on, bring it on and tells us what it means.
@MataHarley:
Mata, I call to your attention John 8:32:
“Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
All I have done is speak the truth: You engage, ROUTINELY, in ad hominem attacks against me when all I do is disagree in a respectful manner.
Bees insults me and you’re perfectly fine with that. Then you turn around after I call Bees out on the personal insult and demand I make an apology to the Liar Bees.
I’ll say it again, Mata, “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
I’ll pray for you today when I drop by church (it doesn’t seem to be making a dent in your vituperative nature though).
@ilovebeeswarzone:
Another lie. You said I was delusional. That is an insult. Why do you keep lying about this? Why not just admit you were wrong-that you did, in fact-insult me and apologize?
You can’t because you don’t have it in you, like Mata, to admit you were wrong. In this case, admit you lied.
You *are* delusional if you think that Ms. Bees called you “delusional”, oh soul’less amoeba.
Other than an “e” instead of an “i”, it’s DISILLUSION.
Strikes me as you have a reading problem to complement your personality disorder.
Ivan I’d say calling someone a “pucking liar” followed by a “Yours in Christ” salutation is very inconsistant.
Brady and Patriots give Tebow and Broncos a lesson this Sun.
@MataHarley: The context means the incorrect spelling on Bee’s part was Delusional.
You know it and I know it. Thus, you are engaging in confabulation in a sad attempt to cover Bee’s insult.
Again, you engage in personal attacks instead of owning up to your mistakes. I will pray for you, Mata.
IVAN
I swear I said desillusion wrongly because it is disillusion,
not delusion, check again, and disillusion meant that you lost hope for AMERICA TO BE FIX ON ALL SIDE, IT MEANS THAT YOU GAVE UP BY SAYING THE candidates don.t have a clue, to someone saying OBAMA don.t have a clue, I did not insult you, recheck the word I wrote with an E instead of I.
and I said sorry for that,
now I say that I.LL never will answer to you again because I find you too dangerous just by you acting now, still calling me a liar, youre bad
@ilovebeeswarzone:
I’m going to do something you and Mata never have the ability to do, in part because you’re not Christians, I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt.
Thus, I apologize for your misspelling causing me to believe, in the context you used it, you were calling me delusional.
Take care and God bless,
Yours in Christ,
Ivan.
@MataHarley:
I don’t know about God, but I can forgive you.
Which of these is not like the other?
Seems to me that the person who sees “desillusion” and reads “delusional” instead may indeed be…wait for it…delusional.
@Aye:
Ah yes, the king of all trolls raises his ugly head. Hasn’t had a word to say, but here he is to stir the pot.
I hope you have a great weekend.
@Ivan: Make some cogent, coherent argument about SOMETHING, instead of being an assclown and insulting everyone, then maybe you might get treated with some modicum of respect.
I guess you have never heard of the Golden Rule?
@anticsrocks:
I’m sorry that I haven’t drunk the kool-aide like you have concerning our pathetic Republican candidates. I’m sorry that you refuse to speak out against the betrayal of our nation.
If Mata, Bees and Ayes were polite and respectful I might actually get in a word in edge-wise, but, especially with Mata, she insists on berating and trolling my posts.
@Ivan: I keep trying to assume your are a bonafide, grown up adult. But with your constant whining, that is an assumption that is increasingly hard to make.
Odd, when I type my comments, no one at FA or even on the entire internet is able to prevent me from getting “a word in edge-wise.”
Stop crying foul, Ivan. Grow up and present your viewpoint without being a baby and without being so hateful in the way you attempt to make your arguments.
Like I said, I offered to debate you and you weren’t up to the task, seems you like to hide behind hateful rhetoric.
Let’s see… 48 comments before this. 18 of them from Ivan alone
Ms. Bees had 12
Aye? a big 1
Me? 3
What was this about “getting in a word edgewise”, Ivan? Perhaps your math is as weak as your general brainpower.
Did I once address Ivan? Of course not.. usually nothing there to address. However I found it appalling he felt the need to accuse Bees of being a liar when, actually, it was nothing more than him being his usual amoeba self. And I would have let Bees do that on her own, save he decided to drag me into his demeaning comments… unprovoked yet again.
I don’t back down, Ivan. I know when to ignore you, and when to engage. And I don’t engage just to see your predictable whiny reactions. Merely to point out the realities of a thread for lurkers. We already know since scrolling ain’t your forte.
@MataHarley:
You again prove my point. You just want to engage in uncivil discourse. I dropped it, Anti brought it up and lo’and’behold you jump in and start up again.
You’re a troll, Mata. Get a life.
You “dropped” it, Ivan? Was this on comment #47, where you didn’t “drop” it but again evoked my name? Or the other 17 comments of yours where you “couldn’t get in a word edgewise”?
19 comments, and you feel you are being overwhelmed?
Yup.. your math is as bad as your reading comprehension…
