CNN poll is still up -- 75% of 77k say speech "worrying"

[Catshrink]

Which word best describes President Bush's speech?

Reassuring: 18%
Uplifting: 7%
Worrying: 75%

Total votes: 77164

This is the same result as last night but with 10x as many respondents. I thought for sure it would be freeped.

1. Seven per cent found the speech uplifting

Who are these people?!

3. People?

4. Why, it's the same majority of people

5. His family....

All the paople on the Board at Haliburton....

[Theres-a]

11. The overmedicated.

12. I dunno, but we ought to find them and have them spayed...

[Hugin]

2. I'm thinking this poll reflects the true percentages.

[adigal]

6. I was uplifted

my blood pressure has been uplifted since I heard Bush was going to speak.

7. I didn't vote in that poll, because none of those words

are accurate. "Appalling" or "shameless" should have also been an option.

8. SSDD would also be a good choice

SSDD = Same Shit, Different Day

(of course, I like this banner too)

10. I love the banner! I'd love to see that one on the streets everywhere

in the US! Maybe in Europe too!!!!

14. Yeah, what kind of choices are those?

"Reassuring" and "uplifting" offset by only "worrying"??

Although this being the new CNN, I'm surprised the choices weren't "Magnificent," "Awe-Inspiring" or "I came in my pants at the President's masterful presentation."

9. And speaking of CNN speech coverage...

Anyone catch their initial reaction after it last night? It was, dare I say, downright anti-Bush. Paula Zahn and Wolf Blitzer both chastized Bush for repeating "9/11" over and over again. They both couched it in the "opponents will surely say that..." terms, but it was still shocking to see. Of course, I was completely plastered by then, having played the Bush Speech Drinking Game:

13. Yeah, that was amazing.

Nightline was downright harsh toward the Liar-in-Chief.

[Kraklen]

15. Those are good numbers.

Really, really good.
