11. Interesting... Hopeful... But I Still Don't Trust Polls.
To begin with, the people who responded chose to do so — they were not randomly selected and asked to participate, but instead made the choice to read a story about a certain topic and then vote on a related question. There is thus no guarantee that the votes would reflect anything close to a statistical sample, even of MSNBC.com users: The participants in a Sports Live Vote and a Politics Live Vote may overlap, but each group is likely to be dominated by people with an interest in each particular area. In addition, while MSNBC.com’s Live Votes and surveys are designed to allow only one vote per user, someone who wants to vote more than once could simply use another computer or another Internet account.

Additionally, while computer and Internet usage is growing daily, only 41.5 percent of Americans have online access at home, according to a study by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration released in October 2000. In contrast, more than 90 percent of Americans live in homes with a telephone. The study also shows a disproportionately higher rate of online access among whites and Asians, and people with higher incomes and levels of education.

14. My comment to MSRNC...
"Does it matter?"

Are you kidding?

We were treated to endless debate
(provided by the media *INCLUDING*
MSNBC) about whether it mattered
when Clinton lied about consensual
sex with Monica Lewinsky. Now, we
have a President who bald-facedly
lied to get us into a war that he
was lusting after, and you have the
nerve to ask the question "Does is
matter?"

Of course it matters!

In any sane world, you'd already be
covering the story of the
President's impeachment and
conviction. But we apparently don't
live in a sane world. Instead we
live in a fantasy world with a
simulation of the real world
provided by several large media
conglomerates who are trying very,
very hard to talk this story out of
the headlines by asking "Does it
matter?"

You can be damned sure that it does
matter!

17. Forgot to mention
We should use the comment area because they are reading them on the air. One of the talking heads just read the comment, "Bush should be tried as a war criminal." Hehehe.....I was thinking it must have been written by someone here.
