Let's do some math

The MSM consistently touts that 80% of Republicants support the orange-faced stain of syphilitic diarrhea. Ok, fine let's apply some simple algebra to put this into perspective using the top end percentage of registered morons, 33% that translates to a hypothetical and admittedly low population of 10,000,000 (I'd use the actual number but you'll get the point).

First let's see what the overall population is for the theoretical number of registered voters (Democrats, Independents and fucking morons):

x * .33 = 10000000
x = 10000000/.33

x = 30303030

Now let's apply the hysterical media's percentage of people who are too stupid to breath, who still support the walking embodiment of a pair of shit-stained underwear, 80%.

10000000 * .8 = 8000000

Now let's see what the percentage really is as far as the support for that diseased fart of a coward against the overall population.

x = 8000000/30303030

x = .264 = 26.4%

Seems to me that the media should be using this percentage as opposed to the 'near stratospheric' level of support among the braindead. Math rules everything else drools.

and haven't noticed a right wing slant. Are you talking about the network, non cable, national news shows?
