Poll question: Most important news story for the week ending 06-27-2008
Edited on Fri Jun-27-08 04:34 PM by ColbertWatcher
Okay, my musty head remembered these things happening this past week. I expect to pull a McCain and forget something important, so pick other and 'splain your pick!

Thank you!

ON EDIT

I've added an unamed Supreme Court ruling, which one, is up to you, but please specify in reply.

I guess we need to start calling congress critters to tell them to stop poking Iran in the hopes that they'll poke back.

Not liking our chances of success.

11. Yeah, I know...
...I started doing this the week of the Greatest Spectacle of Russertarian Proportions Ever!

I wanted to try to change the conversation from Russert all the time to getting people to think about what else happened, by asking what other news stories were more important.

And here we are...too many stories, everything spread out over cable, between commercials.
