6. An absurd poll.
It should read:

Yes, honest government employees need to be protected from the BushCrime Family.

No, this is BushAmerica. Root, hog, or die.

I'm shocked that they're blatantly manipulating the poll. I hope someone complains.

9. Check out the title they've assigned to anti-war ltte
"Against Iraqi Freedom"

http://www.zwire.com/site/news.cfm?brd=2549&pag=460&dept_ID=514266

That, the Christian editorials, and the prominence given to a "homeschooler/unschooler" event leads me to understand why the poll was designed the way that it is.
