Instant Poll: 83% Approve Of Obama's State Of The Union Proposals

Note to TPM sysadmins: it is time to implement a "block this user's comments" option for the webpage. Users should have the option of blocking out comments from trolls like Sailormarlowe.

I'm not saying that the troll should be banned from the website, only that individual users should have the option of replacing his comments with a "you have blocked this user's comments", or, even better, a blank space.

The comments section is rife with trolls. It's annoying. I don't mind hearing from intelligent people who disagree with the liberals on this website, but there is no excuse for trolls. (I'm an equal-opportunity troll hater: I stopped reading Daily Kos because of the plethora of liberal trolls there.)

Most Fox News viewers drink from jugs with three giant XXX's on them, and wear coveralls without undershirts. Okay, that's slightly Appalachianist of me.

Let me be clear: Most Fox News viewers are clay-eating mouthbreathers with shit for brains.

Haha Haha!! Too funny sir! CBS is communist broadcasting station. Priceless.

"Pres. publiclly kicked SCOTUS and Bitch McConnells balls."

Wanna bet that Hennity, Malkind, and The Lump will all decry Obama's "disrespect" for the Supremes?

After their years of enabling Bush in his Executive branch power grab, now suddenly they will all be staunch defenders of separation of powers.

Someone will have to tell me if I'm right, though, I cstill can't watch those phonies for a few seconds without feeling compelled to throw a shoe at something.

I think the Republicans may soon discover that it is easier to say "no" to everything when you can't actually influence the outcome. That puts the spotlight on the Democrats and their internal divisions are highlighted. Politically, it's a smart thing to do.

Now that the Republicans actually have the power to stop legislation, the spotlight will swing back to them and highlight their obstruction. If they are obstructing popular legislation, as this poll suggests might be the case, it will make the political viability of the strategy not so clear.

They will have defections, just as they did with the Recovery bill.

As long as Republicans hold at least 1%, their lemmings will consider them the majority. Their "silent majority" will always hang out there in the mist of their delusions, silently non-existent except in their own minds.
