Let's have some fun with The Boston Globe and support Joe Wilson at the same time.
The Boston Globe ^

Posted on 09/11/2009 7:56:51 PM PDT by MAIndependent

The Boston Globe is having a poll, up or down on Joe Wilson. Second page.

Cast your vote!

Representative Joe Wilson, Republican of South Carolina, interrupted President Obama Wednesday night, yelling "You lie," in the middle of Obama's health care address. Wilson apologized to the president for his outburst. Was this an up or down week for South Carolina Congressman Joe Wilson? Yea, an up week. He stood firm against an overreaching president. Nay, a down week. His foolish outburst has so far netted over $100,000 for his 2010 Democratic opponent.

Nay, a down week. His foolish outburst has so far netted over $100,000 for his 2010 Democratic opponent.
73.4%
Yea, an up week. He stood firm against an overreaching president.
26.6%
Total votes: 1124

I’M SUSPICIOUS>

I voted Yea which was the first question.
But when the tally is revealed it is the second question.
Your yea could actually be a nay. Not sure yet.

No surprise. Many times on comments to articles @ the Globe the non liberal posts mysteriously disappear. Also if comments turn against the way the Globe think they will go comments or the ability to comment will also disappear

Here could be the reason..I looked at other polls.It may be that the top dog goes first..which is why it flips when you see the results on Joe.

Didn’t have that problem. Maybe you have a virus on your computer.

I just got the same thing. Also, I don’t like the way the question was posed. Wilson has also gotten a lot of money. It was an up week.

It's their rag, if a newspaper wants to censor speech that says a lot about them.

Many years ago before I found FR I used to post at the New York Times. I was banned for life without ever using foul language or resorting to ad hominem. I consider that something of an acomplishment. :-}
