Fox Poll: Does Obama Want To Cut Taxes, Or Is He Corrupt Instead?

What do you think Fox News would like to do? asked loaded questions or allow the country to be taken over by Muslims pretending to be Hawaiins?

At least Obama's approval rating increased in this new FOX POLL.

"She's a witch! BURN!"

"And how do you know she's a witch?"

"She looks like one!"

"I'm not a witch, they put these clothes on me!"

"Well... we did do the nose... and the hat... but she's got a wart!"

Fox have created a those most bizarre circular feeding fenzy America has EVER seen.
They actually have no need of a reporter on the ground anywhere - not Washington, not NY, not anywhere. Their opinion has become both the news, justification for the news, and ammunition for the audience to repeat back to Fox as if it came from eslewhere.
They scaremonger that Obama's a muslim, he's kenyan, he's a black christian extremist, he's a commie, he's a nazi, he's a fascist, he's an athiest, he's a socialist, he's a terrorist lover, he's corrupt, and on and on. They never ever offer any proof, but the opinions are so loud and so rioghteous, that their own opinion becomes a part of their news. Then, their audience laps it up, and get angrier and angrier. Which Fox reports on, and take as encouragement that they're on the right track. So they go even further, The crowds get angrier. Fox reports it again as news and confirmation that they are right. and on and on it goes.
They actually have no need for ANY outside influence - the circular firing squad Murdoich adn Ailes has created is quite the money spinner - and the gold merchants are REALLY happy.
It most certainly is a big money spinner for Murdoch and the gold folk, but the depths of ignorance and seething, vicious anger, the exponential hatred for anything outside of their echo chamber, is looking more and more frightening. Not in an electoral sense, in a sense that I see BIG violence coming. They have convinced themselves that Obama is a traitor - muslim terrorist in a suit intentionally owkring to bring their America down. They really believe that. They have convinced themselves Obama is a combination of Bin Laden, Stalin and Hitler. If that were truly that case, I would most certainly join in an effort to assainate him. That is why I am convinced these people, who happen to have a hell of a lot of money, really are planning something big. Terrorism on a massive scale. I'm sure of it. They have accepted the proof-free lies of Beck, O'Reilly, Kelly, Hannity - well all the guys at Fox, really - and now the ever increasing EXTREME McCarthyism from the top people at the GOP, to the point where evidence coming from anywhere but the depths of those few shallow minds is nothing but corrupt, anti-Ameriocan propaganda designed to provide comfort to our enemies.
Their reasoning is gone, their sociopathy & agression is evidently at maximum, and they consider themselves the only people able and willing to 'free America from tyranny'.
This really nees to be addressed - somehow.
It';s not as if Obama is doping anything all that radical! All this is nothing but the repoublicans responding desperately - they have ratched up the fear levels to a point where they know themselves they can no longer control it. And when the violence comes from the mionster they have created, they, too will pay.
And like Cheney/Bush and the destruction they wrought on America, they will undoubtedly get away with it scott free.

I actually got called fro this poll and i had to tell the pollster that the questions were super loaded and he was like don't yell at me dude i'm just reading them off the screen.

"What do you think President Obama would like to do with the extra bank bailout money -- save it for an emergency, spend it on government programs that might help him politically in 2010 and 2012, or return it to taxpayers?"

Doesn't that question contain too many words for a typical Fox viewer?

This is hilarious...it's a push poll! Fox is actually push-polling their own viewers. Presumably they don't need much pushing...still funny though.

What we should do with the money is help Americans that are suffering from the effects of Voodoo Economics. Economic Royalists are served by Fox News.

More importantly is why is this steamin pile of shit story on TPM. Who cares about Fox polls?

For feds, more get 6-figure salaries
Average pay $30,000 over private sector

By Dennis Cauchon

The number of federal workers earning six-figure salaries has exploded during the recession, according to a USA TODAY analysis of federal salary data.

Federal employees making salaries of $100,000 or more jumped from 14% to 19% of civil servants during the recession's first 18 months — and that's before overtime pay and bonuses are counted.

Federal workers are enjoying an extraordinary boom time — in pay and hiring — during a recession that has cost 7.3 million jobs in the private sector.

The highest-paid federal employees are doing best of all on salary increases. Defense Department civilian employees earning $150,000 or more increased from 1,868 in December 2007 to 10,100 in June 2009, the most recent figure available.

When the recession started, the Transportation Department had only one person earning a salary of $170,000 or more. Eighteen months later, 1,690 employees had salaries above $170,000.

The trend to six-figure salaries is occurring throughout the federal government, in agencies big and small, high-tech and low-tech. The primary cause: substantial pay raises and new salary rules.

"There's no way to justify this to the American people. It's ridiculous," says Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, a first-term lawmaker who is on the House's federal workforce subcommittee.

Jessica Klement, government affairs director for the Federal Managers Association, says the federal workforce is highly paid because the government employs skilled people such as scientists, physicians and lawyers. She says federal employees make 26% less than private workers for comparable jobs.

USA TODAY analyzed the Office of Personnel Management's database that tracks salaries of more than 2 million federal workers. Excluded from OPM's data: the White House, Congress, the Postal Service, intelligence agencies and uniformed military personnel.

The growth in six-figure salaries has pushed the average federal worker's pay to $71,206, compared with $40,331 in the private sector.

Wait a minute; look at question 11 on the poll. Does that say that in December of 2008, after the election, 27% of Republicans believed Obama would be a good president and 40% beleived he would be average? That's not what I remembered. I don't think public perception ever rose that high from the Republicans. I think they are fiddling again to make it appear Obama's popularity has dropped .
