Fox-Friendly Poll on Imaginary White House Policies
I just received an email (from this guy's PR outfit) with the subject line:

President Obama's Attacks on Free Speech Opposed by Most Americans, Zogby/O'Leary Poll Finds

Tell me more!

Here's one of the "questions" asked in the poll, tailor-made for Fox News Channel:

Federal Communications Commission Chief Diversity Czar Mark Lloyd wants the FCC to force good white people in positions of power in the broadcast industry to step down to make room for more African-Americans and gays to fill those positions. Do you agree or disagree that this presents a threat to free speech?

It's worth noting that this question only elicited 51 percent support.

Are there any other non-existent administration policies that polling outfits should be asking people about?

2. I took that poll online.
That's not the only f****ed up question. Zogby polls are seriously bad.

3. Ooh, just think of the possible questions:
1) Do you support the appointment of the Antichrist to the FCC?
2) Should Osama Bin Laden be named a Supreme Court justice?
3) Should Nancy Pelosi be crowned empress?
4) Would you support taxing those making over $100,000 at a rate of 110 percent?

Come on -- there are so many questions that could be asked! And it's all just in the scientific spirit of wanting to know how the people will answer!

4. Skipping thru the channels
I heard some guy on Fox say that this is a failed administration and failed congress. And the reason they are pushing a health care bill is so they can say they did something.

Damn bush was up for eight years and you really knew he had a failed presidency after he invaded Iraq.
