13. Worked for me.
approx 1500 votes so far, I'd say 7:1 against pulling the strip.

24. I just voted that poll.
Edited on Wed Jul-27-05 10:13 AM by cat_girl25
Why didn't they print the nickname and why didn't they mention that Bush is the one that gave him that name? This is a silly poll.

27. "that use George Bush's colorful nickname for Karl Rove"
Shouldn't that be part of the question? It's not just "a colorful nickname"; it's W's personal nickname for the cretin.

29. My paper EDITED the strip, which IMO is worse than pulling it.
The paper is the "Chattanooga Times Free Press". I called the entertainment dept and complained that editing it was a betrayal of trust to the readers (he didn't agree), and that rather than do that they should pull it instead. He admitted that the paper occasionally edits all the strips due to language.

36. Someone Get A Screen Capture
so tomorrow when CNN shows the results, they won't like like they did with this poll: http://www.crooksandliars.com/ Scroll down to should Rove be fired. We DU'd this poll the other day and the numbers were much higher for Rove to be fired.
