1. big difference between the MSN poll

and the original newsweek poll.

I love that 83% disapproval rating for IDIOTWATERBOY!

2. I don't understand the approval % from the Newsweek poll

After you look at the answers people in that poll gave to the other questions, how can they still approve at that high rate?

3. Funny how the numbers stack up

On the msnbc.com poll the numbers against shrub and everything he wants are staggering...yet the newsweek poll shows only a slight negative feeling towards shrub IF AT ALL on some questions....


Even if there was tampering on the MSNBC poll wouldn't tampering by both sides sort of cancel each other out and therefore validate (at least in some part) the poll?

And if tampering of the online poll is not suspected by the Anti-Bush camp (only by the Pro Bushies) because we are more "honest" than Repugs then wouldn't that in itself show that even with their efforts the opinion of the people is more heavily anti-shrub?


The point: Which poll do you believe more?


Wow, I like to connect dots but that is one hell of a dot-connection-spree I went on there...Sorry for the fuzzy logic...I just sometimes like circumstancial evidence...it makes me feel good...
