Oh shit, Oh Dear, Oh My Gawd, have you seen the latest Wall Street Journal Poll?
WEll, I haven't and guess what, it's about as "fair and balanced" as anything else Rupert owns and operates. When the evening news propagandists on all the other networks besides FOX starts talking about the "Latest WSJ poll" I start surfing for something more believable like the latest Gilligan's Island Re-runs.

If Rupert runs it it's total bullshit, you can believe that...

1. I don't mind WSJ's bias. They don't pretend to ever be balanced.
When you read the Journal, you should know what to expect.

I vehemently oppose Fox News because they present themselves as being unbaised while they are clearly anything but.

5. It's hard to ignore them when all the major networks rave about
the "Latest WSJ poll"...Bryan Williams almost has the big O when he says "Latest WSJ Poll". Like their polls are the absolute gospel. It makes me freakin' sick. Because I know that the WSJ Polls reflect nothing that Rupert don't approve first. Network news is a total sham now days. They should replace their "News Desks" with a liars bench.

4. I don't trust any polls
The right hopes that if people see these polls showing that the TP is winning, GOP is taking over, etc. that democrats will give up and stay home.

When democrats get out and vote, we win. The most important thing in November is for Democrats to get out and vote democrat. Our plans for hope and change cannot happen overnight! This country is in trouble and it is not going to reverse in less than 2 years, it is going to take a bit of time.

I want to see democratic ads showing what we have accomplished, true facts and figures, and encouragement to get out and support our President's plan by voting.

7. Some will get it...some won't...
The post was not about any specific WSJ Poll...it was about EVERY WSJ poll and what a total crock of shit that each and every one of them are, IMHO.

13. Why do they hate Americans?
The rich 2% who own that 20%, hate 98% of us. The 20% are too stupid to believe the facts.

The GOP owners have a lock on the moran vote and they always will. The teabaggers are the world's biggest suckers.

12. The credibility of the Wall Street Journal has fallen to the level enjoyed by FOX commentary
It fell so fast after the sale you could hardly see it happen, just the blink of an eye and it was gone.

15. The Wall Street Journal has been a reich wing rag for years but...
now they are a filthy toxic rag. Soaked in Rupert's toxic corporate kool-aid. An organ of the snake.

Bryan Williams and his counterparts help Rupert push his toxins. They act like the WSJ is the last word when it comes to how the political picture in America stands. Are they REALLY that stupid? Or are they being paid well, to act that stupid?

18. Polls are good for self deception.
Working in a campaign is the real way to see how a campaign is doing. There are no surprises on election night if you are working in a campaign.

33. That is out of my hands now that I no longer work with the party (health reasons)
I was more the ground game guy. I trained canvassers, did leafletting, petitioning, and did a bit of walking myself.

28. Right...look for them to cheat any way they can because if they...
don't cheat, they didn't do everything they could to "WIN" and "WINNING" is all that matters to the GOP. What's good for the country or the people matters not to the I've got mine club.

34. The bully boys prey on the suckers...
The CON is on 24/7.

Like how a snake trapped in a fire bites itself in agony the working class republican voter can't get enough pain and suffering. They blame the calamity at hand on Obama and forget the real culprit. The CON goes on and on and the fools never learn.

FOX needs to be outlawed for lying 24/7.
