The above poll gives credence to what must be the republican political strategy: Who ya gonna believe--me, or your lying eyes?
We're eight years removed from the second worst economic collapse in our history, all under a republican administration, and a plurality of Americans think republicans can do a better job of keeping us prosperous.
And despite the fact that it was a republican administration that was asleep at the wheel when the 9/11 attacks occurred, lied us into a pointless war in Iraq, and then made such a mess of the governing coalition that it left Iraq in disarray and spawned ISIS, Americans overwhelmingly believe republicans can keep us safer from terrorists.
While I can't wrap my head around why Americans think republicans can handle these two issues better (all evidence to the contrary) and yet view the Democratic Party more favorably (the kind of conundrum for which WTF? was created), one thing is for certain: there are far too many Americans with their heads stuffed too far up their asses.
