Even as President Obama throttles down, trying to ram the presidential limo through the public opinion blockade erected by a huge majority of the people, the barricade is growing. A new CNN poll finds that only 25% of those polled want Obamacare to pass. That’s a debacle for a man elected to be a persuasive star, helped along by thuggery and back room deals from Speaker Pelosi and Majority Leader Reid. The result is abysmal any way you look at it. From the poll:
Feb. 12-15/ 2010
Pass similar bill 25%
Start work on new bill 48%
Stop working on health care 25%
Obama has become a mediocre president pushing an unpopular bill down the throats of an unwilling people. Not exactly the way to become that transformational figure everyone was talking about.
You have a decision to make: double or nothing.
For this week only, a generous supporter has offered to fully match all new and increased donations to First Things up to $60,000.
In other words, your gift of $50 unlocks $100 for First Things, your gift of $100 unlocks $200, and so on, up to a total of $120,000. But if you don’t give, nothing.
So what will it be, dear reader: double, or nothing?
Make your year-end gift go twice as far for First Things by giving now.
