3. I just did but eeeewwwwww

I had to read that Judy Miller bullshit... "Went to jail for 'the public's right to know'". Translation: lied like a rug and went to jail to protect... who? More like "DENIED the public's right to know WHY WE WENT TO WAR".

34. It's dated "Oct 7",

though, but lou needs an UPDATE!

[lumberjack_jeff]

4. Whaddya mean "was"? n/t

[MoonRiver]

6. Thank you - I changed.

Still ongoing.

[lumberjack_jeff]

38. Not really directed at you...

The Dobbs poll speaks of the investigation in the past tense.

I think that's misleading.

[MoonRiver]

5. Let's get it up to 98%!

We can do it, with a lot of help from so many other Americans :D. They're out there! :kick:

15. Done. nt

[MrBenchley]

16. 82% yes....

Hope Dobbs has some sort of seizure when he sees the results...

[Laelth]

17. Of all the questions he could have asked ...

Dobbs invites people to see the investigation as a waste of time and money.

Dobbs is a turd. :puke:

[MoonRiver]

19. If so, he's not getting the results he, according to you, wants.

Dobbs is a mixed bag, but I think he hates the bushistas.

[Laelth]

26. He could have asked a real question.

Should Fitz issue more indictments? Should Cheney resign? Does Libby's fall hurt the President? Should Bush pardon Libby?

Instead of questions that would make us question the whole administration's ethics, Dobbs ask us to question Fitz and whether he wasted public money. That sickens me, cuz I don't think it was a waste, and I voted that way.

-Laelth

[MoonRiver]

30. I agree. But at least he is posting the amazing results to his biased ?.

86% thinks this investigation is justified! That gooooood. :D

[Cha]

35. I know...that wording

is totally Loaded but as My Pet Rock says..People don't care how it's asked..they want it done!

[lumberjack_jeff]

39. Push polling

[gademocrat7]

21. Pissant! He sure words it looking for a "no".

[MoonRiver]

22. If so, that strategy is NOT working. Do you agree? eom

[Laelth]

29. At the moment, perhaps.

Check back in a few hours. I can just imagine a lot of people looking at that poll, scratching their heads, and saying, "Yeah, that was a waste of money, wasn't it?"

:mad:

-Laelth

[tsuki]

23. I love it when they push and it still goes against them (86% yes.)

"Do you believe Friday’s indictments justify the two-year investigation and millions of dollars spent by the special prosecutor?"

Take that you traitor loving CNN!

:bounce:

[MoonRiver]

25. Just shows how much Americans are clued in to what's going on.

I do believe the tide has turned. :kick:

[Laelth]

31. Not likely.

I certainly hope you are right.

:kick:

-Laelth

[MoonRiver]

32. Why not likely?

Do you think they're skewing the poll to support our views?????

[Laelth]

36. Hehe.

No, I think we're skewing the poll to support our views.

As I said above, check back in a few hours. The results will be different. Besides, just asking the question is offensive. It asks people to believe that it's a waste of money.

-Laelth


Edit:Laelth--typo.

[MoonRiver]

41. There's not enough of us to skew it that significantly.

Please, get a grip.

[Nothing Without Hope]

24. The question is loaded to make people say no, but it's still 86% YES.

This is such a slanted way of asking the question:

Do you believe Friday’s indictments justify the two-year investigation and millions of dollars spent by the special prosecutor?

(CNN) -- "New York Times" reporter Judith Miller, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, spent 85 days in jail protecting her confidential source in the White House CIA leak case. She was also fighting for the right to provide narrow testimony before a federal grand jury investigating that leak.

37. Has the investigation cost "millions?" How many? Single, double digit?

Sounds like a lot. Any factoids that might provide some perspective, Mr. Dobbs?

Fitzgerald's investigation:

"In its first 15 months, the investigation cost $723,000, according to the Government Accountability Office." http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/10/23/AR2005102301028_2.html

Just compare it to an investigation some media folks told us was vital to ensure accountability of public officials:

Starr's 4 year investigation:

The figures show that Starr's office, through the end of November 1998, had spent $40,835,000. That includes $27,749,000 in direct expenses from independent counsel appropriations and $13,086,000 in unreimbursed expenses incurred by other government agencies.

Those figures do not include costs incurred by Starr's predecessor, Robert Fiske, whose office spent about $6 million before Starr was appointed to lead the investigation. http://www.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/stories/1999/02/01/starr.costs/
