Sorry. The poll was posted on FR a few days ago. I didn't post on the thread but I went to the linked Gallop site and bookmarked it. When I try to access it all I get is the home page. I'm not a subscriber either.

I did a little search (see link below). Actually you did post on that Gallup Poll thread where you claim that "illegal immigration only polls 1% of the population" shortly after the thread was put up. Then you repeated this claim on at least two other threads including this one.

So, if you are not a Gallup paid subscriber where did you come up with this little factoid? Also, I found it interesting that you would have this paid subscriber information so quickly especially since you are not a subscriber.

RWR8189 put up the thread at 12:29:14 AM CST (12/13/04) and you (bayourod) responded at 12:51:31 AM CST (12/13/04). That's 22 minutes.

And there was no discussion whatsoever about any question on illegal immigration either in Gallup’s summary or on that thread—aside from your remark. You just made the claim right out of the blue. Are you perchance referencing some other thread or poll? If so, where did you get your information from?

Care to shed any light on this bayourod? Thanks.

"Care to shed any light on this bayourod? Thanks"

Certainly. First, thanks for finding the thread.

The link at the top of the thread at the time it was posted linked directly to the poll about Bush's approval rating. Now it does not.

The Thread contained only an excerpt of the poll, not the entire findings of the poll. At the time that the thread was posted one could click on the link and read the entire poll results, including the issue priorities.

I didn't remember having posted on that thread, but if I had incorrectly stated the findings of the poll, don't you think someone would have corrected me at the time?

If you still doubt me, why don't you avail yourself of the free thirty day trial offer?
