(3,575 posts)Thank the media? Would that be the right-wing media progressives fear or the left-wing media conservatives fear? The "media" excuse is nothing but a weak attempt to justify to oneself why others disagree with them.
Fact is, Americans know the OWS message and the dwindling numbers prove Americans do not support their opinions or tactics.
What we know about Citizens United, foreclosures and banks from "polling," is that Americans are concerned about them. That in no way means Americans believe or support the OWS opinions on it or the OWS solutions to it. If it did, they would be in the streets with OWS. They are not.
Like almost everybody else, I am a little leery of CU and I want the issue with ILLEGAL foreclosures to be addressed. That does not mean I believe in some cock-eyed evil corporation take over of the world conspiracy or that I want all debt to be forgiven.
So, from "polling," I AM with the majority.
FWIW: Polls are hardly factual and reading into them, or omitting from them, in order to prove ones point, is pointless.
