That Obama and the Clintons are admired at all shows the depravity of this country.

Cult of Personality
Living Colour (1988)
(V. Reid, C. Glover, W. Calhoun, M. Skillings)

Look into my eyes, what do you see?
Cult of personality
I know your anger, I know your dreams
I've been everything you want to be
I'm the cult of personality
Like Mussolini and Kennedy
I'm the cult of personality
Cult of personality
Cult of personality

Neon lights, a Nobel prize
The mirror speaks, the reflection lies
You don't have to follow me
Only you can set me free
I sell the things you need to be
I'm the smiling face on your T.V.
I'm the cult of personality
I exploit you, still you love me

I tell you one and one makes three
I'm the cult of personality
Like Joseph Stalin and Gandhi
I'm the cult of personality
Cult of personality
Cult of personality

Neon lights, a Nobel prize
A leader speaks, that leader dies
You don’t have to follow me
Only you can set you free

You gave me fortune
You gave me fame
You gave me power in your god's name
I'm every person you need to be
I'm the cult of personality
Look into my eyes, what do you see?
Cult of personality

Get real! Another white washed poll. Again until they publish who they polled, what income, race, education, city, etc, etc. Don't be fooled by smart polling "experts". They know what to ask and how to ask it, and then come to their own conclusions.

Stupid artical

Bengahzi will be her demise - She failed and that cost American lives that will be her legacy - She should just go away and live with the Cheater

The Tailer park GOP red states and their losers,like bush are in dead last ,,

Notice how the dems are in the top ,,,lmao

Hey GOP,,you suck clowns

W should be put n jail,for two unfunded and unjustified wars,,,losers

Soon daddy bush will not be with us,,,

Every time this administration gets itself into trouble with its inept and corrupt policies, NBC starts shooting out trumped up polls to make it look wonderful. Anyone else notice this pattern? Just give them some Nobel prizes and be done with it already. Maybe a giant mountain made of paper machet (spelling?) stuck in the middle of the D.C. mall. First we could try to worship Hillary, and if that doesn't work out, Obama could just wrap a sheet over himself and climb to the top. Anyone getting that?

Hopefully the Blot Clot will kill her - that will be justification for her allowing Americans to be killed by her stupidity - And what if they were your husband or children who were killed and then tried to be covered up for politics- would you still put her on the pedestal. - Typical Liberals drinking from the koolaid

who the hell admires obama?...oh yeah the idiots that voted for him...he is a total ass, a traitor, and beneath contempt.....how did this fraud get re-elected??.....oh yeah...promises of free government cheese.....obama is an ass..

How people can "admire" others that they do not know baffles me. You know absolutely nothing about either of these individuals beyond their carefully cultivated public image.

Well seeing as how NBC is the official media of the socialist Democratic Party what else would you think a poll they put out to come up with?

Mr. President, you are too good a gentleman. But that won't work with Republicans.

You seem to be eager to compromise, avoid fights but they read you wrong.

They think you are weak and meek.

In the second term we want to see you bold, aggressive and assertive. Dems must recapture House of Rep. and 50% of State Governorship.

We want to see you as one of the great Presidents who changed the course of history of the US.

YES,for all us dems, but the repos/teas they just look on with envy, and hate rolled into one!!!!!!!!!!!!

well i took another look at the fiscal cliff calculator filled in the data and quess what? I dont care if the fiscal cliff does come. According to the figures i will have only $63.00 every two weeks coming out of my paycheck. I am not going to suffer at all unless you call not going to the movies 4 times a month just go three times a month. Instead of eating out anywhere from 10 to 12 times a month we will go out 8 to 10 times a month. I don't know if my wife and me can stand the pain of this fiscal cliff. (lol)

You know i learned during the tech recession that the way i was living was not going to work lol. We gave up all our credit cards paid down our debts. We were smart in other ways 20% down payment on the house and 33% down payment on our car. Everything else is paid in cash. Oh also we don't buy nike or apple products they are not only overpriced but they are built on child labor and abuse of other workers. That is something else we picked up from our parents we have morals and an obligation to others in the world. Oh one other thing we started out like everyone else grabbing everything we can so we would look important to other people. We came to a conclusion in a recession our way wasn't working. We went back to what our parents taught us charge only 2 things a house and a car everything else is bought by cash. It works great. I really feel bad about so many people that couldn't lift thier selves out of their greed but they made their choices and they have to sleep in the bed they made. FISCAL CLIFF COME ON we wont be hurt.

Oh just one more thing don't do this lol don't walk up to ur boss and say i am in debt and i want you to lower my wages so i can pay off my debt. Isn't that what the government is doing?

OJ Simpson is and was admired . what you think of that , Andrea Mitchel

Bush gets the consolation prize, a size 10 pair of shoes donated by an Iraqi reporter. He had them bronzed and is on his mantle with his baby booties.

She survived Hitler and wants to warn America
posted by Rob Kerby, Senior Editor

Kitty Werthmann

Kitty Werthmann survived Hitler.

“What I am about to tell you is something you’ve probably never heard or read in history books,” she likes to tell audiences.

“I am a witness to history.

“I cannot tell you that Hitler took Austria by tanks and guns; it would distort history.

Adolph Hitler

“We voted him in.”

If you remember the plot of the Sound of Music, the Von Trapp family escaped over the Alps rather than submit to the Nazis. Kitty wasn’t so lucky. Her family chose to stay in her native Austria. She was 10 years old, but bright and aware. And she was watching.

“We elected him by a landslide – 98 percent of the vote,” she recalls.

She wasn’t old enough to vote in 1938 – approaching her 11th birthday. But she remembers.

“Everyone thinks that Hitler just rolled in with his tanks and took Austria by force.”

Not so.

“In 1938, Austria was in deep Depression. Nearly one-third of our workforce was unemployed. We had 25 percent inflation and 25 percent bank loan interest rates.

Farmers and business people were declaring bankruptcy daily. Young people were going from house to house begging for food. Not that they didn’t want to work; there simply weren’t any jobs.

“My mother was a Christian woman and believed in helping people in need. Every day we cooked a big kettle of soup and baked bread to feed those poor, hungry people – about 30 daily.’

“We looked to our neighbor on the north, Germany, where Hitler had been in power since 1933.” she recalls. “We had been told that they didn’t have unemployment or crime, and they had a high standard of living.

“Nothing was ever said about persecution of any group – Jewish or otherwise. We were led to believe that everyone in Germany was happy. We wanted the same way of life in Austria. We were promised that a vote for Hitler would mean the end of unemployment and help for the family. Hitler also said that businesses would be assisted, and farmers would get their farms back.

“Ninety-eight percent of the population voted to annex Austria to Germany and have Hitler for our ruler.

“We were overjoyed,” remembers Kitty, “and for three days we danced in the streets and had candlelight parades. The new government opened up big field kitchens and everyone was fed.

“After the election, German officials were appointed, and like a miracle, we suddenly had law and order. Three or four weeks later, everyone was employed. The government made sure that a lot of work was created through the Public Work Service.

“Hitler decided we should have equal rights for women. Before this, it was a custom that married Austrian women did not work outside the home. An able-bodied husband would be looked down on if he couldn’t support his family. Many women in the teaching profession were elated that they could retain the jobs they previously had been required to give up for marriage.

“Then we lost religious education for kids

“Our education was nationalized. I attended a very good public school.. The population was predominantly Catholic, so we had religion in our schools. The day we elected Hitler (March 13, 1938), I walked into my schoolroom to find the crucifix replaced by Hitler’s picture hanging next to a Nazi flag. Our teacher, a very devout woman, stood up and told the class we wouldn’t pray or have religion anymore. Instead, we sang ‘Deutschland, Deutschland, Uber Alles,’ and had physical education.

“Sunday became National Youth Day with compulsory attendance. Parents were not pleased about the sudden change in curriculum. They were told that if they did not send us, they would receive a stiff letter of warning the first time. The second time they would be fined the equivalent of $300, and the third time they would be subject to jail.”

And then things got worse.

“The first two hours consisted of political indoctrination. The rest of the day we had sports. As time went along, we loved it. Oh, we had so much fun and got our sports equipment free.

“We would go home and gleefully tell our parents about the wonderful time we had.

“My mother was very unhappy,” remembers Kitty. “When the next term started, she took me out of public school and put me in a convent. I told her she couldn’t do that and she told me that someday when I grew up, I would be grateful. There was a very good curriculum, but hardly any fun – no sports, and no political indoctrination.

“I hated it at first but felt I could tolerate it. Every once in a while, on holidays, I went home. I would go back to my old friends and ask what was going on and what they were doing.

“Their loose lifestyle was very alarming to me. They lived without religion. By that time, unwed mothers were glorified for having a baby for Hitler.

“It seemed strange to me that our society changed so suddenly. As time went along, I realized what a great deed my mother did so that I wasn’t exposed to that kind of humanistic philosophy.

“Then food rationing began

“In 1939, the war started and a food bank was established. All food was rationed and could only be purchased using food stamps. At the same time, a full-employment law was passed which meant if you didn’t work, you didn’t get a ration card, and if you didn’t have a card, you starved to death.

“Women who stayed home to raise their families didn’t have any marketable skills and often had to take jobs more suited for men.

“Soon after this, the draft was implemented.

“It was compulsory for young people, male and female, to give one year to the labor corps,” remembers Kitty. “During the day, the girls worked on the farms, and at night they returned to their barracks for military training just like the boys.

“They were trained to be anti-aircraft gunners and participated in the signal corps. After the labor corps, they were not discharged but were used in the front lines.

“When I go back to Austria to visit my family and friends, most of these women are emotional cripples because they just were not equipped to handle the horrors of combat.

“Three months before I turned 18, I was severely injured in an air raid attack. I nearly had a leg amputated, so I was spared having to go into the labor corps and into military service.

“When the mothers had to go out into the work force, the government immediately established child care centers.

“You could take your children ages four weeks old to school age and leave them there around-the-clock, seven days a week, under the total care of the government.

“The state raised a whole generation of children. There were no motherly women to take care of the children, just people highly trained in child psychology. By this time, no one talked about equal rights. We knew we had been had.

“Before Hitler, we had very good medical care. Many American doctors trained at the University of Vienna..

“After Hitler, health care was socialized, free for everyone. Doctors were salaried by the government. The problem was, since it was free, the people were going to the doctors for everything.

“When the good doctor arrived at his office at 8 a.m., 40 people were already waiting and, at the same time, the hospitals were full.

“If you needed elective surgery, you had to wait a year or two for your turn. There was no money for research as it was poured into socialized medicine. Research at the medical schools literally stopped, so the best doctors left Austria and emigrated to other countries.

“As for healthcare, our tax rates went up to 80 percent of our income. Newlyweds immediately received a $1,000 loan from the government to establish a household. We had big programs for families.

“All day care and education were free. High schools were taken over by the government and college tuition was subsidized. Everyone was entitled to free handouts, such as food stamps, clothing, and housing.

“We had another agency designed to monitor business. My brother-in-law owned a restaurant that had square tables.

“ Government officials told him he had to replace them with round tables because people might bump themselves on the corners. Then they said he had to have additional bathroom facilities. It was just a small dairy business with a snack bar. He couldn’t meet all the demands.

“Soon, he went out of business. If the government owned the large businesses and not many small ones existed, it could be in control.

“We had consumer protection, too

“We were told how to shop and what to buy. Free enterprise was essentially abolished. We had a planning agency specially designed for farmers. The agents would go to the farms, count the live-stock, and then tell the farmers what to produce, and how to produce it.

“In 1944, I was a student teacher in a small village in the Alps. The villagers were surrounded by mountain passes which, in the winter, were closed off with snow, causing people to be isolated.

“So people intermarried and offspring were sometimes retarded. When I arrived, I was told there were 15 mentally retarded adults, but they were all useful and did good manual work.

“I knew one, named Vincent, very well. He was a janitor of the school. One day I looked out the window and saw Vincent and others getting into a van.

“I asked my superior where they were going. She said to an institution where the State Health Department would teach them a trade, and to read and write. The families were required to sign papers with a little clause that they could not visit for 6 months.

“They were told visits would interfere with the program and might cause homesickness.

“As time passed, letters started to dribble back saying these people died a natural, merciful death. The villagers were not fooled. We suspected what was happening. Those people left in excellent physical health and all died within 6 months. We called this euthanasia.

“Then they took our guns

“Next came gun registration. People were getting injured by guns. Hitler said that the real way to catch criminals (we still had a few) was by matching serial numbers on guns. Most citizens were law abiding and dutifully marched to the police station to register their firearms. Not long afterwards, the police said that it was best for everyone to turn in their guns. The authorities already knew who had them, so it was futile not to comply voluntarily.

“No more freedom of speech. Anyone who said something against the government was taken away. We knew many people who were arrested, not only Jews, but also priests and ministers who spoke up.

“Totalitarianism didn’t come quickly, it took 5 years from 1938 until 1943, to realize full dictatorship in Austria. Had it happened overnight, my countrymen would have fought to the last breath. Instead, we had creeping gradualism. Now, our only weapons were broom handles. The whole idea sounds almost unbelievable that the state, little by little eroded our freedom.”

“This is my eye-witness account.

“It’s true. Those of us who sailed past the Statue of Liberty came to a country of unbelievable freedom and opportunity.

“America is truly is the greatest country in the world.

“Don’t let freedom slip away.

“After America, there is no place to go.”

People when will you realize voting for incumbents will not change any results?

Just proves the bias of the left....... if you were to re-run the Obama administration & replaced the names with conservatives........ the liberal left would be on the attack the same way they were with Bush..............

The real difference between conservatives & liberals?

Liberals cannot see their own mistakes..........

Obama. lol

Hillary has been a trooper and has worked herself into this current medical condition. Thank you for your service Hillary. It's too bad you worked so hard for the man who was such a mean SOB to you back in 2007.

You put your Country first. God Bless you and may you recover fully and RUN in 2016 and save this Country.

Ill admire Obama when he leaves office but not enough to tell.LOL

The results of this poll must drive the right wing hatriots absolutely nuts. Wait, they were already nuts, it must make them insane. Wait...
