Everything Is A Propaganda Lie - 34% is not a "majority."

Everything Is A Propaganda Lie

-- by Dave Johnson

Headline at Drudge: POLL: Majority of voters blame president for bad economy...

From the story they link to:

It found that 66 percent believe paltry job growth and slow economic recovery is the result of bad policy. Thirty-four percent say Obama is the most to blame, followed by 23 percent who say Congress is the culprit. Twenty percent point the finger at Wall Street, and 18 percent cite former President George W. Bush.

For the conservatives who don't get the point: 34% is not a "majority."
