Why a top CEO rejects “pro-business” Obama Mar 1, 2011 George Buckley, the boss at manufacturing conglomerate 3M, apparently didn’t get the memo about Obama 3.0 (vs. Campaign Obama and New New Deal Obama) being a “pro-business” president. This new incarnation, the White House tell us, is evidenced by a) the hiring of lobbyist/rainmaker Bill Daley as Obama’s chief of staff, b) bringing in GE boss Jeff Immelt to run his new competitiveness council, and c) temporarily abandoning plans to raise income taxes on small business and entrepreneurs. But Buckley is having none of it, telling the Financial Times that “we know what [Obama’s} instincts are — they are Robin Hood-esque. He is anti-business. … Politicians forget that business has choice. We’re not indentured servants and we will do business where it’s good and friendly. If it’s hostile, incrementally, things will slip away. We’ve got a real choice between manufacturing in Canada and Mexico — which tend to be pro-business — or America.” Buckley has good reason to wonder aloud about Obama’s pre-election year conversion from nemesis to friend of Corporate America. He surely sees Team Obama failing to make obvious moves to boost U.S. global economic competitiveness. The president still supports the new healthcare and financial reform laws. The president still wants to raise taxes. And the president gave the stiff-arm to his own debt panel. So there you have it, the axis of economic evil – taxes, regulation and government spending. blogs.reuters.com

If the Senate believed that Rasmussen poll, they would repeal the health care law. liberals only follow their own agenda. they don't care what anyone else thinks, including the majority. they're violent because that's all they have. they can't make a cogent, reasonable argument, so name calling and violence is their entire arsenal. to get what they want, they ignore or deny reality..

Wouldn't it depend on what their constituents wanted instead of what the polls say? What is the deference between a focus group and a poll? Does a Dumasarat Senator do what his constituents want or does he do what the Dumasarat party ask him to do. Does he do what his contituents want or does he do what only his Dumasarat constituents want? Where does a US Senator's loyalities lie? Does one do what gets him the most votes or what is best for his constituents, his party, or his country? citizen chartseer

So you think Demcrat Senators vote by the polls? Obamacare would never have passed if that were the case.
