Questions the Pollsters Should be Asking

Some time ago I was solicited to participate in a periodic national poll. Because the poll they sent me to take yesterday was probably (in my opinion) the dumbest and most irrelevant poll they have sent me yet, I thought I would help them out by creating a new poll for them. A survey of important questions. Timely questions. Questions that actually mean something. A survey that will inform its participants, even as they are supplying their answers.

Below please find only some of the questions the pollsters might better have asked. Put a check to the right of the answer you choose.



I could come up with hundreds more questions, no problem, if anyone would like to hire me to do so.





1. “Does knowing that a $200 an hour male prostitute and procurer of gay military escorts, using a fake name and questionable credentials was able to obtain and use a White House Press pass for two years to ask the president and his press secretary softball questions, make you feel better or worse about the “vetting” capabilities of our $100 billion a year intelligence agencies?” Or, do you believe he was a deliberate plant by the White House – probably Karl Rove -- to help the president and his press secretary avoid having to answer tough questions?”
