I want to follow up on my earlier post about CNN's online poll.



I actually had to go to work today, so I only caught a few bits of CNN in the morning, but I was absolutely horrified.

They kept pumping the results of their online poll which had about 70% of people voting that yes, the criticism of the Bush administration was just politics as usual.

That lecherous old bastard who works with Paula Zahn said something like "I bet those Democrats will be too embarassed to even go on the Sunday shows this weekend with poll numbers like this."

Daryn Kagan kept pushing when Joe Lockhart was on. He dismissed it intelligently.

I heard Bill Hemmer mention it twice.

This was over about a 90 minute period, during which I was mostly doing the morning routine away from the TV.

What. The. Fuck.
