CNN Poll PISSING ME OFF
Edited on Wed Nov-02-05 01:11 PM by berni_mccoy
First, they had a poll up that gave TWO choices:

Were the Democrats who called fro the Closed Door Session in The Senate ...

1. Looking For the Truth
2. Performing a Stunt.

They overwhelmingly got 80% looking for the truth.

So CNN republican shills change the poll to:
The move by Democrats to force a closed session of the Senate over pre-war intelligence on Iraq was:
1. A "victory" for the American people
2. A "stunt"
3. Just another day on the Hill

Just to divide those who would say 1. Looking For Truth into two categories.

Let me tell you something: Democrats looking for TRUTH is a VICTORY and is just another day on the hill!

I didn't see them posing this question about the Libby indictments:
Was the indictment of Scooter Libby...
1. A "Tragedy" for America
2. A "technicality"
3. Just another day in the White House


Let the Freeptards be divided on that one.

2. Who runs CNN, these days?
They used to be the leader in cable news, now they suck as much as FOX.

3. I emailed them...
A useless gesture, I know, but it makes me feel better. Here is what I wrote:

Could you be any more obvious in the way you change your polls around to get the response you want?

Your first poll:

Were the Democrats who called fro the Closed Door Session in The Senate ...

1. Looking For the Truth
2. Performing a Stunt.

An overwhelming 80% said "Looking for the truth."

So, you change it to this:

The move by Democrats to force a closed session of the Senate over pre-war intelligence on Iraq was:
1. A "victory" for the American people
2. A "stunt"
3. Just another day on the Hill

Trying to divide those who would vote against your wishes? It's too bad that "A 'victory' for the American people" is still leading by 20 points.

Hey, aren't journalists supposed to be non-biased? Or should I start referring to CNN as "Fox-Lite"?

4. They probably took their que from Limpuke.



He went on the air and commenced spewing about two hours ago.

No doubt they dutifully revised their poll to be in harmony with Pimple-butt.
