from time to time i'd believe the un troops have told democrats and president
all mom i hate you know you might like to go forward progressive position might
actually help you with the electorate i know that
the novo sumption in washington and no bomb in nutrition is all i could not be
progressive dot don't go there you can still clutches up with a better voters
about the right way to go
well it's interesting because when elections come out all the sudden
everybody in washington's a progressive certainly president obama
and you know he went and said that he is in favor of gay marriage
by the way that we find out the numbers are actually
uh... training in that direction and have narrative over in that direction
and all the sudden he's on the right side by being progressive okay
now on the issue of immigration we've been saying hey you know can you push
for the dream act in now he says he tried back in twenty ten the republic
did block in that part is true but he said all i can do anything it turns out
that's not true he could have done exactly border along he did but hey will
take it better late than never
and guess what happened
the polls are
so on president obama's policy of savior on the thirty years old and he came over
before you were sixteen you've been here five years and graduated high school
where you serve the military
when i think any citizenship awareness a year to year break where you can legally
work in the country
because of the results are sixty four percent agree
forty percent disagree
that is on the one issue
where progresses don't always score that well depends on the policy matter
but even here
when needed the progress of position
giant quashing victory
well when you break it down uh... further
well it's unsurprising that republicans overall oppose it they're fifty six
percent opposing right but even that's not that hot
and democrats overwhelmingly supported a six percent that's not surprising the
last numbers interesting one
by a two-to-one margin basically independence se
we really like this policy
so but we haven't i was told for three-and-a-half years by the bar maid
mystery shin every dome pundit in washington but if you actually do
progressive positions while you would lose independent voters
it turns out independent voters lol progressive positions
indictment to give you one other adds that that's not related best-known
comeback
for one more important part of this story
on they show bush tax cuts right now democrats are in the middle of folding
on that
there's a new article out today about all well you know the republicans they
got us over a barrel of this thing i think maybe we can establish tax cuts
for a while
what about how we talking about
first of all you although the leverage because bush tax cuts
run out normally at them this year second one gas american people
you know what percentage favor
permanent extension of all the bush tax cuts which is by the way mitt romney's
official position
eighteen percent
laws
hit the
the country's lastingly progressive
all those bush tax was only eighty percent support
extending them properly
when you say they have adjusted sending them one year
all it was six percent
volume one if you don't want the bush tax cuts that you know that there is a
wealthy
they're not in favor of that
as the country is fundamentally progressive
and during elections all the son of course the democratic party realizes
that
now present no bomb was made it one of the central plains although he didn't do
it in his first term that my god i want extend those bush tax cuts for people
making over two hundred fifty thousand dollars here's polling well last that's
what we've been telling you
can you imagine how well you would be pulling
if you actually did those progressive things rather promise them right before
an election
and look at the immigration issue you do that and it turns out
as the people on your side there was more interesting this is the last
interesting fact
about uh... this fall
once you do something in movie
actually more people file
and the poll numbers for that issue and for you overall or increase
so i'd want to give you a quote from loretta price is sixty five years old
lives in florida and she said i thought this was so telling quote
at first i was really against it
but after sitting down and thinking about it
alike it's your did kids
i think it was the right thing to do
well you know a lot got that
what happens when you actually shown leadership
people rethink their position sometimes go you know what
you're right and no one of those and concerned that did that you're right
let's go in that direction
odd
do you have always been tellin album initiation for price it would be a lead
we get back strongly we could be progressive
it's not just go for policies actually good for politics too
i hope they figured out were right
although i'm not convinced because right now if it goes the democrats ando balmy
administration piggy
even if we win the election
right afterwards will do the grand bargain which largely agrees with
republican proposals
but of course that's not based on the polls us not based on winning elections
that's after you win the election
you actually deliver for the guys
will help you any witcher donors
of course that's a reality in washington
so all these polls are lovely show you where the merit and people are
they don't show you our politicians are
bazaar politicians will give a damn about us
they care about the people forming dirty affect
haven't mentioned
wolfpack before
do you know one of the website is wolf dash back dot com is everywhere
no okay right
well anyway argument shot what that fact that uh...
all the way we get out of this mess
