4. I thinkWikipedia has a lot more creadibility that a facebook poll
conducted on the congressman's facebook page...

2. And here's the deal about his poll...
He also said that less than half of those answering his poll were against raising the debt ceiling.

He also said that most people who are his friends on Facebook are conservatives and tea party leaning people.

So if not even half of his conservative Facebook friends are for his point of view - then he's got no argument.

Btw, he was being interviewed by Chris Jansing on MSNBC just now.
