A Washington Post-ABC News poll released Monday shows 70 percent disapprove of how the GOP is "handling negotiations over the federal budget." That's up from 63 percent disapproval in the same poll taken in late September before the shutdown.

 

63% disapproved of how the Republicans were causing the shutdown before the shutdown occurred  it went up 7% afterwards.

 

I'm guessing they didn't call very many in Oklahoma

It does not really matter how Oklahoma feels, they are going to vote Repub no matter what happens, they do not have a single Dem congress member and they were one of the widest margins of victory for Romney.

correct.  If you are doing the survey and want a true reading of how people feel you will not bother with Oklahoma any more than you would Chicago.

So that poll put out by a liberal biased newspaper which showed only a 7% increase in dissatisfaction should not be heeded either.

no, this is where you go wrong. 

 

The reason you dont call Oklahoma or Chicago when trying to get a well rounded response rate is because it is poor survey methodology. 

 

But just because something comes from a biased source does not mean it is wrong ,that is what is called the psychogenetic fallacy.  You cant assume something is wrong just because of a perceived bias. 

 

If you want to discount the poll you need to look at their methodology and see it is was sound or not.

we are very proud that not a single county went for obama.  I don't think a single voting place had a majority for him.

 

Might I add that not only is our state not in trouble financially, but our rainy day fund where we store a little extra for emergencies is full to the legal limit, and we may have to lower our state income tax to stay legal with our constitution.  We expect our federal congress ans senate to be doing the same for the country.....  so don't bad mouth our Republican ways.

And since we cannot see their methodology, it should be discounted.

Of coures you can, every survey explains their methodology if you just go to the source instead of relying on an article to tell you what the survey said.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this study, I'll be focusing on Daniel and his picture of the resurrection and its connection with Yeshua (Jesus).

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
