2. Clueless idiots who have no idea what their votes mean--
I hope.

The idea that they actually understand the significance of their votes and are voting approval anyway is too horrible to contemplate. Are New Zealand & Canada gonna be big enough to hold all of us?

4. Some people are so stupid. I was pleasantly surprised at the
local paper today front paging what torture looked like. And had commentary from CIA officials that said torture doesn't produce good information. I can't believe its even a discussion. Torture is immoral and wrong

5. This only proves
how well corpomedia has done at covering up the facts. This is CNN, checking their results. If the poll remains this uneven, they can pat themselves on the back, pocket the premium and tell each other "Job well done, boys."

disgusting

6. I am shocked beyond words.
I had no idea that so many Americans were such Idiots. Until now I had thought they were merely ignorant of the true facts and had been deceived by the liars in Washington D.C. Now I am starting to seriously doubt that hypothesis.

8. I wonder what the results would be if
the question was something like: "What do you think about those "maverick" Senate Republicans caving-in to the White House..."

The overly dramatized and highly publicized "negotiations" and "compromise" on this issue may be what many people know about it -- but if they're still falling for the bs*, that ain't good.

*: A poll like this is of very little value, even if you credit the accuracy of polls in general -- which I don't, being in favor of mathematical rigor and the close scrutiny of asserted correlations between mathematic models and "modeled" phenomena.
