Poll question: Was Rep. Stark over the top and should he apologize?
Read the poll questions carefully before you select.

If you missed it, Rep. Stark accused Republicans of sending troops to Iraq “to get their heads blown off for the president's amusement” during a debate over a children’s health bill.

2. Where is "He was over the top and should NOT apologize."?
That's my view. He was over the top, and who fucking cares? Bush has been over the top every day for seven years.

13. My opinion is the same
over the top - no apology. Pukes never apologize and if Rep. Stark really feels that way - so be it.

3. The "for the President's amusement" is a bit much, but I agree with the general message. nt

4. Where's the "He was not over the top, and any Democrat suggesting publicly that he was
should be skinned alive and sodomized with a rusty chainsaw" choice?

6. This type of
Language needs to be used/said. we Democrats need to show a bit more teeth. i am sick and tired of hearing this from the republicans. I like it when we do show our teeth and hear the righties squeal.

8. I don't think he's correct, but he's entitled to his opinion and shouldn't apologize

9. The top has been moved
over the past 40 years, and certainly over the past 6 or 7. Stark is right, and deserves lots of dittos.

10. No apology needed...
He was right on. The only thing that shocked me was that one of our congressional Democrats had the balls to say it!
