The telephone poll was conducted Sept. 6-7 among 1,000 Americans. This poll included an oversampling of African Americans to ensure there were enough interviews for reporting results in that demographic group, the center said. What does that mean,999 of the called were liberal blacks?

"The poll highlights racial divisions"
No doubt it does, which explains how sPew got the poll results it desired.

Oversampling of blacks and Democrats. Looks like a typical "push" poll. What else did you expect?

Of one thing you can be sure; the MSM will keep polling and polling, changing the questions and skewing the sample until they get the result they want: It's all Bush's fault!

Guess he could have thrown Nagin and Blanco into club Gitmo.
Maybe that would have been enough.

The poll shows that 67 percent of Americans say Mr. Bush could have done more in handling relief efforts In hindsight, everyone could have done more. What a stupid question.

I'd be intereste din how many of the poll respondents have been through a major hurricane and seen the roads, experienced the lack of communications and the lack of power afterwards.
One of the problems with Katrina was that at first no one knew how bad things were and once they did, there was no real way to get to the affected areas except by chopper.
Fifty Billion Dollars in aid is a very good response in my book.

Were blacks in NO the only ones affected by the storm?

of course this will be spouted by the MSM- no mention in this poll if people were asked about the relief efforts by local officials...complete joke...

PEW is totally bogus. I used to go thru all the steps needed to find their real questions and data, and the results were astounding. They would sometimes take a favorable group of responses and add them to the unfavorable in order to get a big negative number they could headline.
The "could have done more" question is totally stupid and designed to get a big "agree" response. I have no criticism of Bush on what he did but even I might say he "could have done more." There are things I think he could do more on that I don't want him to, like do more to raise taxes.

OK, although not headlined majorities in the poll gave only fair or poor marks to federal and to state and local efforts.

Did NPR just poll the NPR crowd? If so, I'm surprised the President came out as well as he did.

Americans are highly critical of President Bush's handling of Hurricane Katrina relief efforts, according to a new poll by the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press...... The poll shows that 67 percent of Americans say Mr. Bush could have done more in handling relief efforts, while 28 percent say he did all he could. This is an extremely biased polls and it was intended to show that the American people are blaming President Bush for the hurricane problems. Let us forget this for a second and look at NPR way of putting this. When people say that the President could have done more this does not mean whatsoever they were "highly critical". Second the question was framed in such a way that will push people to say "of course the President could have done more" but PEW research did not ask the question "Do you blame President Bush for the hurricane" because even in an extremely biased poll like this one they would not get more than 20% of people to blame the President.
