even after "Weighting" the respondants, there is still a 2 to 1 built-in bias in this "Poll"..

If you only ask the opinion of the enemy, you will only get the enemies point of view.

I finally learned how to read polls.
I've been SKIPPING to the END of
all polls for the past two years.
With CBS, ABC, or NBC, it's the
fastest way to find out what
they're up to.

Cheney had an 18% approval rating, so they are telling me that only half the people who like Bush (likely all Republicans) like Cheney?

I call BS.

From the same network that brought us phony documents comes a bogus poll. Color me "not surprised".

CBS did NOT "Slant" the poll.

It is a FORGERY!

A term that CBS just loves, n'est ce pas?

Since the poll tacitly purports to represent prevailing opinion, it is fraudulent. And, according to an on line dictionary which defines* a forgery as "Something counterfeit, forged, or fraudulent."

So, the headline in Drudge, on Fox and elsewhere should rightly be... "CBS FORGES another one!"

*second definition.

Another Stain on CBS

The failure of this CBS poll to weigh both parties equally just goes to show how incredibly biased this poll really is...
