I just got polled
Edited on Tue Dec-09-03 07:31 PM by dsc
This outfit called FEC communications (I think) polled me on issues having to do with religion, gay rights, and abortion. Most bizarely I was asked if I would approve of appointing that Justice Roy Moore to the US Supreme Court. All I can say is yikes.

On edit They really must be confused. I am pro life, in favor of gay marriage, and against prayer in school. They must really wonder who they had on the phone.

and turn it into a plus' thinking. Same thing happened to Spence Abraham. Lost the seat he was running for in Michigan, so they made him Energy Secretary.

4. I'd say you were "push-polled"...
...considering that line of questioning. No respectable organization would ask such an asinine question as the "Roy Moore" one.

You should've asked what "FEC" stood for - 'cause it sure as hell ain't the Federal Election Commission.
