CNN Poll on WMD "jokes" -
Edited on Fri Mar-26-04 11:04 AM by Mike Daniels
The Freepers have discovered it (which I hate to say is how I found it): http://www.freerepublic.info/focus/f-news/1105506/posts

Question is: Were the jokes over the line?

At the time I voted it was 55% yes and 45% no. I usually don't care what web-based polls say but this incident really pisses me off.

1. A quote from the freeper site-not a dumb one either!
Problem is, the President's comments were NOT appropriate and opened himself up to legitimate criticism that he should not be making jokes about the Iraq war when brave soldiers are being butchered everyday by the enemy.

I don't know who is advising him but they should be fired. What idiots.

12. Seems to be one of Condi's favorite expressions

A picture from her future maybe?



Poll still doesn't have enough of a spread to indicate that the people appreciate the gravity of the whole situation in Iraq, and realization that the war was unnecessary.

Present stats:

Yes - 55% . . .97867 votes

No - 45% . . . 80392 votes

Total: 178259 votes

9. They really need to do a poll asking
"Would you like to know the reporters who laughed at chimpy's tasteless jokes? Some of them are employed right here."

11. Freepers "Personal Repsonsibility" Re: GWB....LOL!!!
The ones who did not laugh at the jokes say "They should fire whoever is advising him!"

My God....why the HELL can they never find him responsible for ANYTHING that comes out of his stupid mouth, their "personal responsiblity" mantra seems to not apply to the assclown in the White House.
