1. done

[revcarol]

11. I also sent them a cryptic note saying that

they should have framed the question:Would a change in Presidents HELP in the war on terror? and the answer would be a resounding YES

[flpoljunkie]

12. Great response, revcarol. Give the lapdogs hell!

Way to go!

[Jai4WKC08]

27. I doubt that.

Reframing the question would not change the response.

People are idiots. They don't see the big picture. They make judgements on pre-conceptions.

Most people think Bush is stronger on fighting terrorism than Kerry. They're wrong, but that doesn't matter. You don't need to think to vote.

All the more reason Kerry needs a VP with strong defense credentials and credibility. Having been a junior officer in Vietnam is not the same.

[wryter2000]

2. Done

:kick:

[flpoljunkie]

4. Wryter2000, I love your signature line!

LOL!

[jean]

3. First of all..WHAT war on terror? Second - I'm going

[flpoljunkie]

8. Jean, the "war on terror" usually refers to Al Qaeda, and not Iraq

It is only Bush and his minions who have tried to morph the two!

[jean]

24. That is my point - and the minions are legion

(added on edit)

Bush has wasted time, money and lives regime-changing and nation-building in Iraq.

He has lost focus on terrorism, for instance, spending 1.3b in Afghanistan (where bin Ladin and crew are) and 250b plus in Iraq where bin Ladin is not.

al-Qaeda is now using bush's nation-building playground (the failed state of Iraq) as a terrorist training ground with unlimited live targets.

msnbc and all others continue to evoke "The War On Terror" when it is nothing but a less than half-assed effort by bush and all of his departments (Homeland Security, Defense, whatever else you can name).

[flpoljunkie]

28. Absolutely! The feckless media whores are EASY to roll! The RNC knows

just which buttons to push to get them to repeat this tripe--endlessly.

[ewagner]

5. GGGrrrrr.....

This poll and the piece of crap posted on CNN are both tilted to Bushco's agenda.

These f-ers are really getting blatant about spreading WH propaganda.

[MrBenchley]

6. done

[keithyboy]

7. What could make it worse?

It couldn't be any worse.

[flpoljunkie]

10. Oh, yes it could get worse with four more years of Bushco!

On to Syria, Iran and God knows where else!

[utopian]

9. Done my duty

[redqueen]

13. How does ANYONE not see the bias in mainstream media?!

:grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr:

[buff2]

14. Done......

The bu$h whore media are lining up just like they are told. 8 damn months of whoring for the little mental midget while pounding it that Kerry is a liar,stiff,wooden......just like they did Al Gore. It's the same ole shit.....just a different person to sling it on. Bastards. :argh:

[Robb]

15. Absurd question

If you think the WOT is wrong, your vote is co-opted by the pro-* side. :eyes:

[HydroAddict]

16. Did it.

[arcane1]

17. there is a feedback link there, too

we should ALL send them a nice note letting them know that WE know

[HuskerDem]

18. I posted this in general too

I can't BELIEVE how (*^&*(()& SLANTED the questions have been lately!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is the RNC sending them in? Yesterday's Q was: The bombing/elections in Spain, did the terrorists win?

No DIPSHITS, it's called democracy. Peace won.

[flpoljunkie]

21. Thanks, HuskerDem.

The answer is NO. A change in Presidents would not hurt the war in terror! Continuing with Bush would be a disaster in the war on terror!

[HuskerDem]

32. I got the freakin bends when I saw this question on TV

This makes FoX look like the "liberal" media.

[NoPasaran]

19. What an idiotic question

A change in presidents would help out war on the bad people using terror as a weapon

[BootinUp]

20. OMG

Traitors! that they would ask this question on their web site. Its a fucking push poll is what it is.

[revcarol]

22. So tell 'em about it!!

Restrain yourself from using swear words, but they need to know WE DON'T FALL FOR THIS SHIT!! (oOPS, SWEAR WORD!! Wash my mouth out with soap...)

[DaveSZ]

23. LOL

This is Bush's "strategery" to win the election.

"I'm a war president, so we can't change presidents in a war!"

Meanwhile the country is falling apart here at home, and we soon won't have anything left of our beautiful country.

Maybe Clark as VP might make some sense in this kind of fear-mongering environment.

[HuskerDem]

25. VOTE VOTE VOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We're GAINING ON THEM !

[flpoljunkie]

26. It's now a tie! Keep it up!

33. No now at 52%

Keep it going...

[SeveneightyWhoa]

35. What a disgusting question..

Can you imagine, this is the type of crap coming from the mainstream media 8 MONTHS BEFORE the election, WITHOUT a terrorist attack! What'll happen if there IS a terrorist attack within the months before November? What level will the anti-democratic discourse sink to THEN?

Unreal..

[atre]

46. Look at all their questions: they're all slanted rightward.

nm

[sandnsea]

36. Phone: [phone]

Call and shut down their phones. How about this question: "Will changing Presidents help the war on terror?"

[flpoljunkie]

37. "Will changing Presidents hurt the war on terror?" Hell, no!

Keeping the one we got will continue to hurt the war on terror--inflamed by the current president Bush--with his unnecessary, inflammatory war in Iraq.

[Leilani]

38. Voted!

No 53%

Told them if we are at war, I want someone with Military Experience, not an actor playing Top Gun!

[Leilani]

39. Kick!
