cre8tiff Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 (edited) WASHINGTON — Americans by 9 percentage points have a favorable view of the health care overhaul that President Obama signed into law Tuesday, a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll finds, a notable turnaround from surveys before the vote that showed a plurality against it.By 49%-40% those surveyed say it was "a good thing" rather than a bad one that Congress passed the bill. Half describe their reaction in positive terms, as "enthusiastic" or "pleased," while about four in 10 describe it in negative ways, as "disappointed" or "angry." The largest single group, 48%, calls the bill "a good first step" that should be followed by more action on health care. An additional 4% also have a favorable view, saying the bill makes the most important changes needed in the nation's health care system. . Az? Bueller? Bueller?

i_am_the_swammi Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 IThe poll results shouldn't surprise anyone now that the initial "shock" is over. Sometimes, you have to confront your fears in order to understand that there was nothing to be afraid of in the first place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbpfan1231 Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I agree - this bill is going to significantly decrease health care costs because that is what people were really bitching about - thank god this bill is going to do that!!!

Ursa Majoris Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Let me guess, they polled all the welfare recipients. Probably some among them: Source: USA TODAY/Gallup Poll of 1,005 adults Monday.

Yeah, I remember when the USSR fell we thought Western Europe would finally be free, but then they turned on us and started guaranteeing health care for all citizens....Leninists!

millerx Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 The terrorist have won. No rant here, but ... you bring nothing to the board. Not a single cogent thought in you. I might not believe in some of what bushwacked, Ursa, and some of the others say, but a least I can respect that they have a thought or a question they can express... They at least make me pause to see things from a different perspective. You, on the other hand, are what moneymakers or candyman is to the "left" on this board. Honestly, I just don't think you know how pathetic, cheap, lazy, and worthless your comments have become. No rant over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, what can you do when tosberg posts such a well-thought, cogent, and researched argument? We merely flail about in befuddlement. What an orator...or the 21st century version of one, I guess.

CaP'N GRuNGe Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I'd guess that many are happy that all the inflated rhetoric is over....at least for a little while. Next stop: immigration reform and the evil brown people! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
