8. they polled 502 people, and call it "broadly accepted"????
Edited on Fri May-12-06 04:10 PM by arcane1
:wtf:

100% of the people in my office say they don't like the idea of their calls being tracked. Sure, it's only 7 people, but obviously that means that ALL Americans are against it, right?? :eyes:


on edit, funnily enough ABC's own poll is the fucking opposite of what their article states:

Is it okay for the government to track phone calls made by you and millions of other Americans?

No, it is not acceptable no matter what the government says. 3,902

Yes, if the government says it is necessary to fight terrorism. 1,651
Total Vote: 5,553

Edited on Fri May-12-06 04:11 PM by ShortnFiery
feel an obligation to be scientific:

1) Careful scrutiny in the wording of both the poll questions and answers;
2) A large and diverse sample size.

Nope, IMO media whores will be media whores.

They're "fair and balanced" SCIENTIFIC with this ABC poll just like their rivals FOX. :(

16. I voted on a poll last night on the subject and the
numbers on it were running better than 60% against the wire taps. Those polls the MSM are using today are just plain bullshit.

Hmm. I'm figuring 71% non-wusses there. But of course, it's not scientific. :eyes:
