Salzman's a hoot
What a joke to hear Rocky Mountain News media critic Jason Salzman - an activist
of, by and for the Democratic media establishment - caution everyone else about using polls! ("Polls rarely serve the public interest," On the Media, Oct. 13.)
Readers with a memory know Salzman certainly props any poll he can use for
effect. The embedded donkey operatives at The Denver Post and the Rocky no
longer bother to post the political affiliation of their respondents, nor the
actual questions asked because gentle readers would smell the skunk coming.
The Rocky editor inadvertently gave Salzman's column the correct headline:
"Polls rarely serve the public interest." Nope, but they sure serve the private
interests of Democrat newsies foisted upon Colorado.

polls are the backing of passing a liberal left wingnut liberal agenda. ask pointed questions, have you stopped beating your wife, and then say everyone is for or against it. its part of their backdoor plan to turn the country into a socialist failure like all the other socialist countries.

Posted by on October 27, 2007 08:38 AMYou know if you cons would worry more about electing cons that have a little brains and stop worrying about some stupid poll you might be able to save your republican party that is quickly going in the sh--er. You worry about all the democratic runners instead of fixing you own dumb runners.

Almost half of all dems believe Bush was either behind 911 or arent sure.
Dems have positioned themselves such that good news in Iraq to them means more dead American soldiers and less terrorist deaths.
America's sworn enemies and tyrannical dictators have outright endorsed and praised the dem platform over repubs.
Tell us again which party is going in the shitter, you putz.
LIBERALS ARE IDIOTS!
Funny, it's usually conservative Republicans who pooh-pooh poll number (unless they're in their favor, e.g. waving away Bush's low approval rating and pointing out that Congress' is even lower).

Be fair,
Both parties do it but the difference is the libs have the advantage with the selective reporting done by the sympathetic media, which decides which stories fly or die.
LIBERALS ARE IDIOTS!
Whiny twits like Salzman love polls that support their position even if the persons polled are relying only on their personal prejudices and not on the basis of facts.

Posted by jay on October 27, 2007 01:05 PMAh Republicans are fun to laugh at but dangerous once in power. They care more about keeping gays from being married and premarital sex than they do about the health care crisis and the disaster in Iraq. Don't worry though, in a couple of years the Republicans will provide some much needed comic relief equating gay sex with bestiality and getting busted with gay hookers while the rest of the country is busy correcting the damage the G.O.P has wrought onto this country since 2000.
If your concerns are more than reducing the capital gains tax and preventing boobs from being seen on TV, you will probably be voting D this next election cycle.
