Zogby's poll is the proof for that. My particular agenda is considerably broader than one election. You mean a biased poll is proof for a biased study? Ziegler paid Zogby to conduct that poll to promote his own documentary where he blames the media for misleading people into voting for Obama. A fourth-grader could read the poll questions and see how they were slanted to produce the desired result.

That they are here does not make them any less stupid. Nor does it make the idea that we need more of them any less stupid, nor the idea that we need to chuck all such nonsense any less correct.
