5. So what if they are.........
how many "political groups" used Terri Schiavo? There's always going to be an element of band-wagon jumpers, it comes with the territory. I don't think she's being "used" at all. She's a smart woman and if anyone is using anyone, she's probably using them to get her message out there more strongly.
Dumb question. Coming from MSRNC I would expect nothing different.

11. Actually a bad question. Define "use".
People, groups, political movements "use" Jesus...does that make Jesus' message any more or less that what it was/is?

12. why is YES the wrong answer?
Of course political groups are using the Sheehan's media spotlight. What's wrong with that?

This is our time for the anti-war movement to finally get some legs. What's wrong with that? I hope every political group opossed to * and this war uses Cindy's momentum.

14. Another of their questions disguised as talking point.
How odd that while the accompanying story mentions "DEMOCRATIC operatives" and "the FAR left," the question does not. That makes this question a lose-lose situation for our side, which I think is a little dishonest. Even if she was being used by ANY political group, would it be a BAD thing?

15. My Comments To MSNBC Re; This Poll
I voted no but I do want to comment that, everything being done by the government is political to people who take democracy seriously. There are decisions being made by the people in power that affect citizens in just about everything they do, because we are the ones footing their bill. For you pundits, here is a newsflash you must have missed: since we taxpayers are footing the bill, everything, EVERYTHING in the political world that we pay for IS POLITICAL. We are paying for this war, we are suffering its consequences, like Cindy has. Sooo, Cindy is speaking to the results of those political decisions, and she is demonized because it addresses decisions made by political people rah-rahed by just about every political pundit? With "logic" like that, tell me, how can we common citizens win? Sheesh!

16. Done. It's at 43% no. I added the following comment...
Cindy Sheehan is absolutely not being used or manipulated by the left. She is doing her own thing, and will continue to do to whether or not she is supported by any other group. She is "using" us, and we are assisting her, to get her message out to a larger group of Americans. It is sad that this is necessary, but until other groups became involved in her cause, the corporate media in this country was largely ignoring her. Bush continues to consider her a "nuisance". She's much, much more than that - she speaks for millions of Americans who oppose this illegal and immoral war, and she is inspiring the anti-war movement.

20. I voted "no" but...
...it's a really stupid "no win" question that only supports the double standard. Cindy, MoveOn, Michael Moore, Ben Cohen, etc...ARE ON THE SAME SIDE!!! Of course people on the same side, who want the same thing, are going to help and support each other. I am very anti-war...so should I have refused to go to a vigil Tuesday night because I was being used by Cindy and MoveOn???

Rush Limbaugh supports and exploits every right-wing cause...does that mean he's using them and they are going to disassociate themselves from him. Where are the polls about Rush using people?????

They don't want us to be organized, so we are suppose to be defensive and apologetic if we associate with MoveOn or any liberal person or group....it keeps us separated.

22. Of course they are using her. What kind of question is that?
And she is using them.

Why don't they ask about Bush using the troops to hide himself?
