Poll: Majority of Republicans believe Obama is a 'socialist'

A new poll of self-identified Republicans released Tuesday shows a large slice of the GOP believes President Barack Obama is a “socialist” who was not born in this country, should be impeached, wants the terrorists to win and only won the 2008 election because ACORN “stole” it for him.

The survey of 2003 self-identified Republicans, who typically trend much more conservative than voters who “lean” Republican, was conducted by Research 2000 for the liberal blog Daily Kos.

According to the poll, 63 percent of Republicans believe Obama is a socialist; 39 percent think Obama should be impeached; 24 percent said Obama wants “the terrorists to win”; and 31 percent agreed with the statement that Obama is “a racist who hates white people.”

Those numbers are just a portion of the results from the poll that paints the GOP as much more socially conservative — and in some cases conspiratorial — than most analysts would be willing to grant.

According to the survey, 36 percent of respondents do not believe the president was born in this country, and 21 percent think the liberal advocacy group ACORN stole the election for Obama.

3. It's amazing that the power structure of the GOP has nothing but contempt
for the rank and file. They're nothing more than lowly serfs to the fatcats.

I am sure I join All Americans in wanting to send the Republicon Homelanders a cheery 'Get Well Soon card.' They are in desperate need of a Giant Reality pill.

Snap out of it now. Get a grip.

7. I'd like to see that poll shown on FAUX
After all, it's nothing they don't say 10X a day.

But seeing it in a real, honest-to-goodness poll would probably cause more than a few moderates to recoil in horror.
