6. Bill... Shut up!
How I've wanted to say that.

Now, go write another hypocritical children's book.

Oh, and don't you have a settlement to be "working off"?

9. Hmmm....
I don't even think it's an actual "working" poll.

That's *EXACTLY* the same numbers I got several minutes ago.

Typical FNC/RNC fix there.

11. Every 'click' on a Faux site GIVES THEM REVENUE!
I refuse to increase their ad revenues under any circumstances! Fuck 'em! Let the shit-eaters that buy their crap create their own illusionary reality. They're BEYOND the reach of reason or fact.

15. I beleive you have to click on ads to actually earn them revenue
however if the have more site hits, it does make them look more popular and makes it look like a better target for advertisers. But so what, we end up fooling some companies dumb enough to advertise on fox news into paying more dollars for the space.

27. Headline: FOX Viewers Fatally Uninformed.
That poll has been groomed. There was a more comprehensive one on the MSN.com site yesterday. Across the board, people voted in the high 60s against the president and his message. Either FOX viewers are unconscionably dim-witted, or FOX is simply taking liberty with reality and skewing the numbers in loyal GOP style.
