CNN Poll: 67% Oppose Obama’s Executive Agenda Paul Joseph Watson Infowars.com January 29, 2014

Clear majority of State of the Union viewers want Obama to work with Congress A CNN/ORC poll of viewers who watched last night’s State of the Union address found that 67% oppose Barack Obama’s plan to pursue his political agenda via executive orders. During his speech last night, Obama unveiled a raft of executive orders and also promised to enact gun control measures “with or without Congress.” However, viewers reacted negatively to Obama’s plan to bypass lawmakers. They were asked, “In general, would you rather see Barack Obama attempt to reach a bipartisan compromise with Congress on major issues, or would you rather see Obama take unilateral action without Congress to make changes in government policy that are not supported by Republicans?” Just 30% said they want Obama to take unilateral action, with 67% opposing his executive agenda, which U.S. House Rep. Randy Weber last night described as the behavior of a “socialist dictator”. Despite the Huffington Post spinning the poll as a “positive” reaction to Obama’s speech, the numbers show otherwise. In all three reaction categories, positive, very positive and negative, Obama performed worse than any of his previous four State of the Union speeches. Obama’s “total positive” figure of 76% was the worst return for the last 14 years besides George W. Bush’s 2006 figure of 75%. CNN was a little more honest, reporting that reaction to Obama’s speech was “less positive than previous years.”


The poll also showed that less Americans than ever before during Obama’s tenure are confident that his economic plan will succeed. In 2009, 80% of respondents thought Obama’s policies would improve the economy compared to just 59% after last night’s address. Although still a majority, fewer Americans than ever before following an Obama State of the Union speech believe that Obama’s policies will move the country in the “right direction”. Meanwhile, a clever new viral ad by the American Action Network released just before last night’s speech depicts Obama as an empty suit making hollow promises.

Obama Promises To Enact Gun Control Laws “With Or Without Congress” Steve Watson Infowars.com January 29, 2014 Critics Respond: “He doesn’t have the constitutional authority to act unilaterally” Among a myriad of promises to create and sign laws using his magic executive order pen, the president vowed during last night’s State of The Union Address to pass more strict gun control laws, even if it means bypassing the Congressional process. “I intend to keep trying, with or without Congress, to help stop more tragedies from visiting innocent Americans in our movie theaters, shopping malls, or schools like Sandy Hook.” Obama said. “Citizenship means standing up for the lives that gun violence steals from us each day,” he continued. “I have seen the courage of parents, students, pastors, and police officers all over this country who say ‘we are not afraid.’” Obama’s pledge received an instant response with prosecond amendment groups and Republicans firing back.


”He doesn’t have the constitutional authority to act unilaterally and pass legislation on gun control,” Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann told The Daily Caller. “He just doesn’t.” “I could not bear to watch as he continued to cross the clearly-defined boundaries of the Constitutional separation of powers,” said Rep. Steve Stockman (R-Texas) who walked out of the SOTU speech. During the speech, Obama repeated comments he made days previously, noting that 2014 is going to be a “year of action,” essentially by Presidential fiat. “Wherever and whenever I can take steps without legislation to expand opportunity for more American families, that’s what I’m going to do,” Obama stated. Tea Party favourite Stockman said Obama was promising to “break his oath of office and begin enacting his own brand of law through executive decree.” “This is a wholesale violation of his oath of office and a disqualifying offense,” the Texas congressman said. Other Republicans took a similar stance. “Unfortunately, what I heard from President Obama tonight was hostility toward our foundational principles, condescension toward a co-equal branch of government, and a general aversion to common sense and bipartisanship,” Rep. Raúl Labrador (RIdaho) commented. “The president’s attempt to intimidate Congress by abusing executive power demonstrates a serious unwillingness to work with the coequal legislative branch of government,” Rep. Gregg Harper (RMiss.) wrote in a statement. Meanwhile, in response to Obama’s speech, Rand Paul delivered his own SOTU, outlining a “new way” forward, heavily drawing on overtly libertarian proposals. Referring to unemployment and the dwindling economy, Paul stated “If we don’t understand the cause of joblessness, we’ll have trouble fixing it.”


“As we entered into the Great Recession, Republicans and Democrats misdiagnosed the problem as too little government. So they gave us more government in the form of bank bailouts and a government stimulus plan.” the Senator added. “It’s not that government’s inherently stupid — although it’s a debatable point,” he said with a pause and a cock of the head. “It’s that government doesn’t get the same signals. Milton Friedman recognized that when he wrote, ‘Nobody spends somebody else’s money as wisely as they spend their own.’ ” Paul added, pointing toward free-market libertarianism as a solution.

Alex and the Infowars Nightly News crew take apart Obama’s propaganda A good hour before Obama’s teleprompter delivered State of the Union address, the crew at Infowars was on the case. In what passed for a politically astute version of Mystery Science Theater, Infowars Nightly News host David Knight and reporters Jakari Jackson and Lee Ann McAdoo joined Alex to provide lead-up, blow-byblow, and follow-up commentary on the speech. While the corporate alphabet media dwelled on phony bipartisan harmony, a government mandated raise in the minimum wage, legalizing millions of illegal aliens, and a permanent subsidy of workers screwed by the banksters and transnational corporations, Alex and the Nightly News crew focused on Obama’s brazen subversion of the Constitution and an underhanded move by the ruling elite to fashion him into a dictator.
