Try to pay attention:

Free Republic Opinion Poll: Do you approve of the president's guest worker plan?

Member Opinion
Definitely not. A guest worker program will not work. 38.9% 1,041
Yes, but illegal aliens must go home first and apply for entry. 28.4% 761
Maybe, but it needs a lot of work. 18.8% 503
Yes, will be fine as is or with minor changes. 8.1% 217
Undecided, other, pass. 5.9% 157
100.1% 2,679

Ok, one more time: Would you approve of a guest worker program as planned or with amendments:

Member Opinion
I would approve of a guest worker program if it requires illegals to go home first and apply for entry 27.0% 938
I would not approve of a guest worker program of any kind 20.4% 710
I would approve of a guest worker plan similar to Tancredo's 15.2% 530
I approve of the president's guest worker plan as is or with minor changes 8.8% 305
I might approve of a compromise guest worker program with some of Tancredo's ideas incorporated 8.6% 298
I don't like the wording of this poll and decline to participate 7.7% 266
Immigration from Mexico should not be allowed under any circumstances 7.5% 262
Undecided, other, pass 4.8% 167
100.0% 3,476

Those are the results when the question is ONLY about guest worker's programs.

And I only counted members because I don't care about people who log off and vote.

I was basing my posts on what you said in #48. Now had you worded it as such , 70% of the people on this forum that want a guest workers program want "Such and such", then I would have had to agree. However that is not what you said, you said "Almost SEVENTY PERCENT of the MEMBERS of this forum approve of SOME KIND of worker's program".

Big difference there, the 1st states the obvious, the second states that 70 percent of all people who are on this forum are for a Guest Workers program, which is 100 percent wrong.
