re: #554 avanti

Here’s how much of the country agrees with you on Cheney. You can certainly agree we are all wrong, but that is the perception the GOP will have to deal with. Notice the break down follows the split in the county, if you like BHO, you don’t agree with Chenay.

“Seventy-two percent of those questioned in the poll released Monday disagree with Cheney’s view that some of Obama’s actions have put the country at greater risk, with 26 percent agreeing with the former vice president.”

link.

Now, let’s fisk Avanti and see how he lies, which he has been doing a wonderful job of this afternoon. Let’s play out his little game here.

In a post above, Avanti said… “His approval rating are even lower then when he was in office, much lower then even Bush.”

And I asked him for a link to some statistics to back up his comment.

At the link, here is what the CNN article says… “Seventy-two percent of those questioned in the poll released Monday disagree with Cheney’s view that some of Obama’s actions have put the country at greater risk.”

Notice that this poll has NOTHING to do with Cheney’s popularity, or even how his popularity matches up to Bush, when the administration was in office.

Avanti leaps from one lie to the other.

This poll is about a specific issue, a specific question, not Cheney’s over all popularity, or on how popular he is with other conservatives.

Avanti is plain out fucking lying out his ass to all of you.
