“This of course is a totally UNbiased poll....NOT”

It’s just a poll, take it however you want...Here are some results that you can’t dismiss so easily...The following is the percentage of people who favor bans on smoking in recent elections:

Ohio 58%
Washington 63%
Arizona 54%
Nevada 53%
Florida 71%

Feel free to look up the percentages where the legislature passed the ban.

Just like those who conducted the poll, you are only touting the results because they agree with your agenda. The polls/studies/surveys/whatever that do not agree with the pre-ordained outcome never see the light of day.

Look at the wording of the questions in this “poll,” and tell me it is not weighted to get a specific predetermined percentage.

The same people do the same “poll” in whatever state and tend to claim similar results regardless of locale. There is no proof of the claims, just a one-sided press release issued.

Would you so blithely go along with the results of a CAIR funded “poll” that claimed “2/3 of the population of the state of X did not believe Islamics wished to kill Americans?” Or a La Raza funded poll that claimed “ 2/3 of the population of the State of X was in favor of illegals being given amnesty?”

I have to say you would, given your obvious acceptance of these results of”polls” funded by groups that stand to financially benefit from legislation based upon thier “polls.”

SO WHAT? Since when do poll results trump private property rights, Whee The SHEEPLE? I really get a kick out of the Tali-banners. Most of them go to a bar about once a year and have the gall to bitch about the smoke from the patrons who's business keeps the damn place open. If their business mattered the bars would all go smoke-free of their own accord. Free markets work, you know.
