Once again, Barack Obama sides with the far left radical fringe and against the wishes of mainstream America.

With the exception of Barack Obama, radical democrats, communists and the media, 74% of Americans either support the Arizona immigration law or say it doesn’t go far enough.
CBS reported:
Public support for Arizona’s controversial new immigration law has increased slightly, a new CBS News poll shows, with 57 percent of Americans characterizing the law as “about right” in the way it addresses the issue of illegal immigration.
Support for the measure increased five points since May. Since then, the Justice Department has filed suit against the law, claiming that it usurps federal authority to enforce immigration laws…
Twenty-three percent of Americans think the law goes too far, according to the poll, conducted July 9 – 12. That’s down five points from the 28 percent who said in May that the measure goes too far. Another 17 percent said it doesn’t go far enough.

That kind of graph is a picture of a near-consensus in America. When poll results cross the 75% marker in America, we have a consensus.

Good news for Arizona.
Bad news for New Mexico.

Arizona started the ball a rollin. After the new state and federal elections more states will follow suit. The Left has shown the American public their true face and it has scared the crap outta the sleeping American public. The LSM cannot scrub/control the publics news consumption. People like me pass along the real news on a daily basis to numerous uninlightened working folks. I am the go to guy that has the real news. Some wonder how it is I know news days in advance. The truth is self evident. Thank you Jim Hoft for the information you provide. I am putting it to good use. powder is dry.

Almost two-thirds of Americans think Barack Obama’s economic programs have had no effect on them personally – and just 13% think they have helped. 23% say that his economic programs have hurt them, up from 18% in May.
This is some kind of unexpected achievement.
The FAILED policies of the Obama/Reid/Pelosi regime have been an experiment we now need to terminate.

The number of illegals now hanging around outside of Home Depot in my California neighborhood have multiplied by a factor of 10. Yesterday I counted 112.
That’s my only beef with the Arizona Law (1070). It’s only AZ and California (a sanctuary state, I guess) is left with the burden.

CBS just got more hits on their website because of that poll. Do ya think they figure this whole biased thing out?
Naaa!
Dennis Thompson commented:
Yep, around 25% is bedrock for Oilbama (hardcore libs + most favored identity group who’d still support him even if he performed a partial birth abortion on national TV).

Didn’t Obama get about 57% of the vote and they called it a majority? Hmmmmm

Any day we can shock CBS is a good day for America.
down with dems commented:
23% disapproval for the law… hmm… how many of those were illegals themselves, or legal Hispanics freaked out by skewed media coverage?
74% approval… that is huge. Hopefully other states are watching… Americans WANT these laws, and want the ENFORCEMENT of these laws.
Hedgehog commented:
This poll reflects the position of the American people. If you exclude Obama, other Communists and the media, you are pretty much left with Americans. Unfortunately, Obama’s minority currently, and temporarily, are in office. They think that they are “in power”, and they don’t give a damn about the will of the American people. Their day of reckoning is coming. Don’t compromise, don’t forget, and don’t forgive.

Why wait for the elections our dear state legislators, lets get the ball rolling. Lets push this scourge further west into the ocean and take our country back. Although I fully believe Cali is lost. Only way to get it back is going to take blood sad to say.

MC, I’m just like you. I’m the go to person at work and with my family. I love my country so much, and this situation is just breaking my heart. I watch Fox News and stay on my pc reading all the conservative websites I can (Gateway Pundit is my first hit of the day). I care too much to keep blinders on. I push my relatives to pay attention, and it’s working. They have awakened a sleeping giant!
Gregor commented:
That last paragraph is even more beautiful when worded correctly. It should read …
With the exception of Barack Obama, radical democrats, communists and the media, (100%) of Americans either support the Arizona immigration law or say it doesn’t go far enough.

..”A new CBS News poll shows, with 57 percent of Americans characterizing the law as “about right…”
..so any reader just skimming the CBS headline or just the pie chart would quickly see that the % favoring the AZ law had fallen ..below its well documented 70% mark. Typical CBS…fitting the headline to their Savior’s agenda while hiding the real numbers below the fold.
here’s another one..from AM THINKER:
BEWARE:this MSNBC online ‘poll’ is a trap!

I think AZ should protect the Arizona border, not the US border.
No federal issue…
I think this type of thing is exactly what the founding fathers had in mind as a legitimate use of militias..
ron2win commented:
Obama won fifty three to forty eight.
Strange how Holder gos after Az.for supposedly breaking federal law ,but dosen’t have a problem with Caleeforna haveing santuary cities for immigrants, which is in of it self defying federal law. Liberals hypocracy no’sno bounds
bitterclinger commented:
Just saw an Ohio sheriff on with Cavuto saying they’re going to enforce immigration law whether the feds care or not.
xxx commented:
Lets give away Hawaii and then immediately throw out OBummer out of office. He is an illegal citizen that is why he is suing Arizona. He knows it so do Holder the terrorist as* licker and supporter and NAACP race baitor.
