7. Voted yes and left a comment...
I thought some might appreciate it. I'd like to see fewer polls get skewed in either direction.


"I'd like to see you track the number of times each person votes, which could probably be done with a simple TCP/IP trace. There are a large number of websites that are highly partisan -some would say militant- that actively encourage their members to vote hundreds of times to skew online votes such as these, especially when there is any possibility of the question being construed as critical of their particular line of thought. "

8. MSNBC, unlike CNN, does only let people vote once.

3. Done, thanks.
I don't know that it really matters whether Caligula spoke out earlier on that or not, but I'll try anything to help him look as dumb as he is. 61% and rising....

4. Ever get the feeling these things are DU versus Freepers? Sigh.
They have no meaning.

18. Freeper (?)
Just an aside (first-time poster here), not meant to be a disruptor, which I get the meaning of...

Neither troll nor Republican caused any confusion, but in the forum rules, Freepers were mentioned. What is a Freeper, if you don't mind the question? :)

6. I won't even go to MSNBC's web site
or cnn, fox, etc.

If I need news I go to BBC or other international sources, Reuter's or AP web site

12. This might not be the thread, but why are the Bushies so dumb?
How fuckin' hard is it to make a statement of concern for the living and prayers for the dead? The arrogance and stupidity of the bushies is without precedence in US History.

14. If he would do the right thing he wouldn't be "wailed on"
I for one would love to sing the man's praises but he hasn't done one single thing that I can think of that would lead me to even say one good word about him. Maybe you can help me out. What has he ever done that has made you proud to be an American?

16. The "Do Not Call" list
but that's it. Seriously, isn't that shameful? Not one thing other than that.

17. There was no right thing in this case...
If he got right on the TV and said "I feel your pain" we would have savaged him for using this tragedy for political advantage. When he waited a couple of days, we whacked him for not doing anything.

It doesn't matter what he does, we can still wail on him. I love it.

21. No, if he'd of made a short statement on his way to the airport,
anyone wailing on him would have seemed petty.

He chose to finish "My Pet Goat," before he took notice that something was "amiss." Then when he finally does notice something is "amiss," he doesn't want to work with the UN, he wants to become the entire frigging show for his frigging "line of credit."

You get ragged on no matter what you do, true...the thing is that you want to at least look credible to majority of people.

:kick:

Thank you for thread.

* made us look very bad and inhumane to the world.
I hate this man for thinking he does not speak for me.
I will speak for myself from now on, even at this he sucks.

P.S. Thank you Bill Clinton for stepping in and putting out a good face for us, you are my hero once again, all is forgiven.
