CNN Poll: Majority says government a threat to citizens’ rights

http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2010/02/26/cnn-poll-majority-says-government-a-threat-to-citizens-rights/?fbid=hD8smK3WkT0

Fifty-six percent of people questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey released Friday say they think the federal government’s become so large and powerful that it poses an immediate threat to the rights and freedoms of ordinary citizens. Forty-four percent of those polled disagree.

It’s about time a main-stream media outlet, especially one that leans so far to the left, has came forward and addressed what’s become a growing fear of American’s. I have been one of those that’s been preaching about this forever. I know beyond a shadow of doubts, we are heading for a major upheaval in America. Whether it’s by extreme and possibly violent measures or by battling with pen and ink, the American people are not going to stand idly by and allow our government to take over ever facet of our lives. It’s only a matter of time before the people of this great nation take the country back from the government and retrieve our inalienable rights, as given to us by our founding fathers and those in the original Tea Party. — Colonel Flagg

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. Senator Evan Bayh, a popular Democrat seen as having a good shot at a third term, said Monday he won’t run again because of the kind of bitter politicking that has put President Barack Obama’s whole agenda in jeopardy.

Bayh of Indiana said that “narrow ideology” was ruling lawmakers’ decisions, thwarting useful work at a time when a bipartisan approach was urgently needed, and sapping his desire to remain in Congress.
