Bad news for President Obama and Congress, good news for Occupy Wall Street. A New York Times/CBS poll finds that distrust of government is at its highest level ever, with 89 percent of Americans saying they distrust government to do the right thing, 74 percent saying the country is on the wrong track, and 84 percent saying they disapprove of Congress. The poll also found that 43 percent of Americans say that wealth should be distributed more evenly in America. Asked specifically about the Occupy Wall Street protests, 25 percent of Americans said they had a favorable impression and 20 percent said they had an unfavorable one.

Where's the part of this New York Times/CBS poll that blames 0bama being responsible for a LARGE part of this distrust?
That's exactly right. When the peaceful Tea Partiers were distrustful of government, they were dangerous radicals, ready to overthrow society. But when the Fleabagging Pee Partiers defecate on people's front porches and cop cars, it's the salvation of the world. The New York Times is filled with demented cranks, which is why their circulation and influence is plummeting along with the rest of the dinosaur media. Thank god for that.
Good luck with that.....

The Buffet rule -- you can become the world's largest tax cheat and also become an idol of the left at the same time. All one has to do is say what they want to hear.
