Sorry I missed last week's poll question. "Does President Obama have the country headed in the right direction" . Who wrote "An unpopular president" as the poll result? (1/29/2010) What are the 250 other comments? Will you post them online? Are they as "venemous" (your word) as the ones you selected? I particularly take offense at the Communist = Democrats paragraph. Are you expecting venom back? Is this what sells newspapers and TV ads? Is journalism bankrupt too? Are these angry folks heading our country in the right direction? (Another poll question, perhaps?)
Next week's questions: What is the most pressing concern of the country? In my mind, the big looming "something else" is the kind of venemous comments you (and we) repeat that prevent us from working together to do the right thing when it comes to Jobs, Housing, Afghanistan, Health Care and other critical issues. We can't get the job done over the shouting. It's time that quiet, concerned, patriotic and courageous folk (and politicians) begin to question this posturing and courageously work to get the job done.
