Obama's fans are not turning on him
Before Christmas, columnist Kathleen Parker claimed that President Obama's fans are turning against him because of "The Polls." News flash Kathleen: It's not true.
Ms. Parker must not have endured the rigors of a Masters level statistics class because anyone who has knows that poll numbers can be dramatically skewed to say whatever the conductor of those polls wants them to say.
Aside from that minor fact, I wonder if those thousands of families who lost their jobs/houses/investments courtesy of the Bush Administration were contacted for their opinions in these polls. Doubtful, because many are homeless/penniless and just trying to find food and heat. They can't afford telephones anymore.
How dare third-rate journalists claim that Obama supporters are turning on him. We're not. So forget about trying to brainwash us any longer. Hitler said, "How lucky for world leaders that men do not think." He meant it was easy for governments to do what they pleased as long as propoganda was in place.
Well, we're out here thinking, and I personally think your polls are garbage because I know the numbers lie.
