Poll question: What is the most compelling reason not to elect any more republicans?
Edited on Thu Aug-07-08 05:05 PM by ColbertWatcher
* Choice 1: to prevent more fascist ideologues from getting on The Supreme Court
* Choice 2: so that Congress can get back to the work of being a co-equal branch of the federal Government
* Choice 3: to protect a woman's right to choose
* Choice 4: to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States
* Choice 5: to hold all the criminals of the Bush 43 administration accountable
* Choice 6: All of the above and more (which I will add in reply)
* Choice 7: None of the above. There is no reason not to elect more republicans.
* Choice 8: None of the above, but I have another reason (please elaborate in reply)

1. economic fairness
fairer tax policy, more funding of social programs, and stricter regulation of corporations.

2. Talk about a Push-Poll!
Because the world will cease to support life if we do.

4. Well, I did include "There is no reason" So, technically, it's not a push-poll...

9. There are many compelling reasons to not elect any more Republicans.
I could type for an hour and still not get through all of them.

In short, to prevent what we've had happen over the last 7.5 years from ever happening again.

10. All of the above, and...
(1) To take urgent, decisive action towards clean, renewable energy and a green economy.

(2) To make population stabilization a reality and "sustainable Earth education" a priority in all areas.
