CNN, you LACK! What a STUPID poll question.
Check this: "Have you seen one of the new peach $20s?"

CNN (aka Certainly NOT News) are you KIDDING ME?!?!?!?!?

Can't do a poll on our SOLDIERS having their LIMBS BLOWN OFF in Iraq for Bush's war for oil, now can we??? OH NO! But that's that liberal media in action once again.

Lu Cifer, proud to have CNN, Faux and MSNBC (which stands for Mega Stupid and Nothing But CRAP) BLOCKED on my TV along with the religious channels.

1. Let the emails begin...
Their candy feeding feel good non-news non-anything rhetoric needs to end. Start the e-mails going... CNN WAS the closest thing to real news on TV, now I can't stomach any station except C-SPAN!!!

2. This would be a good write in:
"Have you seen the new twenties?"

Dear CNN:
I found your poll quite fascinating. But I, like many Americans, have not seen a twenty in a while.
You see, unlike the very slim wealthiest minority, most Americans did not get a massive tax cut. In fact, many of us are unemployed. Of those of us who have jobs, there are several of us who are underemployed, and are just happy to have a job at all.
I can't help but thinking how incredibly shallow and worthless this question is. An entire state is in flames, and you are asking people if they have seen the new twenties?
Soldiers are dying in Iraq on a daily basis, and we are seeing no end to this mess within the near future. Yet still you are only interested to know if we have seen the new twenties?

There was a time when I considered you to be a relevant news source. Questions like this, however, are just nonsense.
Whatever happened to journalism? Why not ask people if they are offended that the President lies to them daily, and acts like they are too dumb to know the difference?
Are you afraid of the results of such a poll?
