The Washington pest just published one of their polls where they once again stacked the deck.  IN this one, they headlines cdreamed that America did not want to stop the Filibustering of Judicial nominees!

Well, that sounds informatiive.  Until you actually read the poll (it is in PDF on the link).  NO where in the question does it say anything about filibustering.  No where!  So how can they say that the american public does not want the filibustering to stop?

Read question 36:

Would you support or oppose changing Senate rules to make it easier for Republicans to confirm Bush's Judicial nominees?

Do you see word filibuster in there?  Neither do I.  And the post has the temerity to defend this piece of crap as news?  They take the democrat talking points, make a question out of it, and then try to pose it as an objective view of America!

The problem that Abramowitz tries to defend is that he says Partisans know the questioning is talking about Filibuster.  Yet, the poll was not asked of Partisan Republicans and Democrats, it was asking of random people who are not necessarily following the story closely!  And so they lead the results by phrasing the question to appear that the Republicans want to modify the constitution!

When they are not.  The democrats are trying to change the constitution!  But of course their good little sheep will now run out and bleat that democrats are good, republicans are bad.  Based upon a loaded question that does not belong in a MSM poll at all due to its bias.

Oh wait!  That is all the MSM does these days!  They forgot how to REPORT news.  They only know how to spread propaganda.

Polls Colonel Klink?  It depends on the source, and yours is clueless as is the Washington Pest's.
