THIS explains everything!
While perusing the internetz today, I came across a comment from a Republican, in response to a post about those low numbers we keep seeing for Bush, support for the War in Iraq, et cetera:

"... because when those poll people call, I do what other smart Americans do; instead of answering their questions, I just hang up on them."

So there you have it, folks. The vast majority of Americans think Bush is doing a heck of a job, and their support for the war hasn't wavered.

Their overwhelming numbers just don't show up in polls because they're TOO SMART TO ANSWER THE PHONE!!!

1. They won't volunteer for Iraq, they won't volunteer for a survey!
Hey, freeps! These wars and polls don't win themselves!

2. Yea right! I have to tell ya, when I get a call about my opinion,
if they asked about subjects that I'm interested in, I take a few minutes to respond. If it's about some stupid thing that I don't care about, or I consider a PIA, I hang up too. If I were a REAL Shrub supporter, (are there any left?), I would do all I could to make sure all pollsters and anyone else who would listen know how I felt!

....they won't care enough to vote. They lose!

6. My thoughts exactly ...
"Dumbest. Rationalization. Ever."

And it's not like THAT dumb rationalization doesn't have some steep competition for the title.

5. PHONE POLLS ARE FATALLY FLAWED
EVERYONE WITH A BRAIN IS ON THE DO NOT CALL LIST.
