This poll was raided by the DUmp, time to freep for truth on this one.

[11th Commandment]

WHY? it just shows the nuts who follows CNN and how irrelevant CNN is...

[2001convSVT]

Congressman Pete Stark, another phony-American!

[badpacifist]

Would like to help but that means I would have to go to the CNN website and I have already showered.

[Nervous Tick]

I’m with you, 11th. Who cares. Any forced apology from Stark would be disingenuous anyway — he didn’t slip up, that’s really the way he thinks.

My question is: did film of his over-the-top statement make the evening news? Did the story make the morning paper? I don’t watch TV news or read the newspaper so I don’t know.

[WhistlingPastTheGraveyard]

Apologies are "Get Out Of Jail Free" cards in politics.

Better to make Stark and his party of traitors eat his words than demand some half-assed, disingenuous mea culpa.

Is there a RESIGN option?

[Hoodlum91]

This is a gift to the GOP! Had the comment not been made, the MSM would be hyping the poor children wasting away because of the president’s veto being sustained.

Now everyone’s focused on a raving lunatic with the big D next to his name. I say he should keep it up!

[SueRae]

The Left has countless minions who have nothing better to do than vote in these types of polls..and particpate in every kind of wacko demonstration going.

[cgbg]

Wrong question.

The relevant question is:

"Should he be confined to a mental institution for his own protection?"

:-)

[Neverforget01]

In answer to your question, NO. Stark’s comments did not make my paper but there was a huge article on how Republicans vetoed health care for the children! I’m shocked, I tell ya!

[RedRightReturn]

Well of course he shouldn’t apologize...what he *SHOULD* do is go eff himself!!

Am I about to suffer my first Admin timeout for saying this???

[Help!]

Now at 450 Yes
3487 No

[Help!]

Yes, I wanted the “Resign” option, as well.

[MoshMasterD]

Now that is smart. Sorry if I posted the CNN poll and offended people here.

[Hoodlum91]

I don’t think you offended anyone. It’s good to see what CNN deems important enough for a poll. This shows that it’s not just the blogosphere and conservative talk radio stations picking this up, but that it has legs.

I e-mailed Stark’s office encouraging him to continue to speak from the heart. He is a gift to the Republican party.
