Default Rasmussen: Just 9% say Federal Government should not be limited in it's power
Arrogant knuckleheads like California's (where else? LOL) Pete Stark need to read The Constitution and American history. Congress is the servant of the people, not the other way around, Pete.

Just 9% Want No Limits on What Federal Government Can Do

Friday, August 06, 2010

Eighty-six percent (86%) of voters nationwide say there should be “limits on what the federal government can do.” A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that only nine percent (9%) believe the federal government should be allowed to do most anything in this country.

These views are overwhelming shared across virtually all partisan and demographic lines.

The only exception is America’s Political Class. By a 54% to 43% margin, the Political Class believes the federal government should be allowed to do most anything. Mainstream voters reject that view by a 94% to three percent (3%) margin.

At a July 24 Town Hall meeting, Democratic Congressman Pete Stark of California may have inadvertently articulated the Political Class view. In responding to questions about whether or not the recently passed health care law is unconstitutional, Stark said, “I think that there are very few constitutional limits that would prevent the federal government from rules that could affect your private life." In response to a follow-up, he added, "The federal government, yes, can do most anything in this country."

Thinking about this some more. And yet,they want the legislators to amend the Constitution regarding immigration and gay marriage. Make up your minds, please.

They want to keep government off our backs, but not out of our bedrooms. Stupid, isn't it?

Of course, those of us who remember the Watergate years also want limits on the government, but Regis won't consider that fact when deciding that this must be an anti-Obama sentiment.
