MSNBC’s Obama poll does not include any choices for people who disagree with him
MSNBC just published this article titled “Obama keeps promise to young men of color.”
The article states:
President Obama is expected to launch his most focused efforts to address the dire prospects of young men of color this week, a demographic far too often swept into cycles of poverty and the school-to-prison pipeline.
Obama will unveil details of a new initiative called “My Brother’s Keeper” on Thursday, which will draw on partnerships with foundations and businesses to target young men of color across the country with a range of opportunities and strategies to help bolster their lives.
The article includes the following poll:
The poll asks the following question, and includes the following three options as an answer:
What are your expectations for Obama’s “My Brother’s Keeper” initiative?
It will make a difference.
Its success will depend on young men’s initiative.
Not sure.
All of those options are either positive or neutral.
There is no option for people who think that Obama’s proposal won’t do any good, or who think that it will cause more harm than good.

This is not surprising, since MSNBC is essentially the cable version of Ohbongo’s narcissistic personality. In their mind, there cannot even be the hint of anyone who might disagree with him or find his action counterproductive. But it’s nice to have the silliness of this poll pointed out to everyone. Always appreciative of all you do, Dan.

Let Obozo sit in my house and see the drugs that are exchanged before his very eyes on a daily basis.
These “young men of color” feel that because white man brought them here in the 1600’s or 1700’s that the white man should bow and kiss their feet.
They blame the white man for what their own people did in the beginning.
But that is something that they will never see.
To this very day I am called a HONKEY or CRACKER but just once let me call one of them a nigger and all hell breaks loose. Police are called and come to my home then things are printed in the local paper by the NAACP and the vicious circle starts all over again.
Well I have have news for these people. I DIDN’T START THIS BUT YOU SURE HAS HELL ARE TAKING IT OUT ON ME OTHERS LIKE ME. WHY, ALL BECAUSE OF THE COLOR OF OUR SKIN.

I see these kind of polls from Democrat congressmen. It asks a question, and asks if we should spend money to fix it this way, or spend money to fix it that way, and no answer that we can say, how about not spending money at all. Then that congressman uses the results to support a media article that says the people support spending money this way, whichever of the ways that won, to solve the problem. The article will only refer to “the results of a recent poll found” and will ommit the details of the poll or that it was setup so heads they win, tails you lose. Standard, textbook, typical Tammany Hall style political propoganda tactic.

Obama IS a “negative wave”. Thankfully, a temporary one.
