Freep this poll. The quick vote at the bottom of the page ask if Jeb Bush did the right thing for Terri Schiavo. So far the results of the opinion poll are stacked against Terri. Let know CNN know how we really feel about this. The hard work of all the freepers at the vigil and those who contacted the Florida legislature should not be ignored for Terri's sake.

Why do they keep reporting that she is comatose?

[Mark Felton]

Doesn't this clearly demonstrate the huge cultural divide?

These are the same people who are against the death penalty for murderous criminals.

I think “freeping” polls is a bad idea. Gives them unwarranted attention and often advertising revenue. And everyone who reads them knows how meaningless online poll are.

But to put this in Breaking News is absolutely idiotic.

You guys *STILL* don't get it, do you? Repeat after me...

*ALL* CNN POLLS ARE RIGGED. THE PURPOSE OF THESE POLLS IS NOT TO REPORT BEHAVIOUR, THE PURPOSE OF THESE POLLS IS TO MODIFY AND CONTROL BEHAVIOUR.

Why do they keep reporting that she is comatose?

Because they are liars.

Voted No. What he did was horrible and cruel. He should be impeached.

[trustandobey]

Praying for you

[Constantine XIII]

Yeah, let's give the judiciary the power to permit the murder of sick people, that's a GREAT IDEA! O_o

msnbc is starting to ask for opinions. Can email at Question@msn.com

I can't vote in a poll with a lie in the question. She is not comatose. I don't participate in polls which make me admit to something that is false (i.e. if I say no, then I am saying she is comatose). The classic example of this was in a Time Magazine poll:

If Bill Clinton did have sexual relations with Monica Lewinsky(sp?), does this change your opinion of him? Yes or No.

Of course it didn't change my opinion of him, I always despised him. However, if I said No, then they could report it as support for Clinton. These polls are worthless and are carefully worded to achieve a hidden goal.

[Libertina]

I thought they did one last night? I guess they didn't approve of the result. BUMP

[submarine]

You are right!

I checked the totals -- then voted -- the total for "yes" votes was the same as before. Apparently, "yes" votes are not registering.

[amom]

Apparently, "yes" votes are not registering.

Hummm now that's curious.
