politics aside....
So, I am watching Meet the Press today - Senator Ben Cardin (D-MD) and his opponent in the upcoming election, Michael Steele (R) squared off with Tim - and in the middle, I get a phone call - my caller ID says "P Resch" which I am guessing is Pew Research...
The questions:
Automated with you answering yes or no:
1. In the upcoming election, have you decided who you will vote for?
Me - Yes
2. Will you vote for Michael Steele?
Me - No
3. Will you vote for Ben Cardin?
Me - Yes
4. Do you want your taxes to remain the same or be lowered?
Me - yes
Automated Response:
In blah blah blah, ben Cardin voted blah blah blah
5. With this information, have you changed your mind about who you are voting for?
Me - No
6. Will you vote for Michael Steele?
me - No
7. Will you vote for Ben Cardin?
Me - Yes
8. Do you believe that unborn babies should be killed for research?
Me - ok, so here we go with values - see how this question in phrased? It's inflamatory and personally, I think it skews the poll...YES, I am for embryonic stem cell research assholes...do you really have to phrase it as if those who believe in that are going out and killing babies of pregnant women - those embryos are going to be thrown away, why not use them for something good?
This is a perfect example of why in a prior post I said that GOP is always trying to portray Democrats as having no values. That's some BS...
They asked a few more questions around our troops and gay marriage...
I'm still pissed...the one about gay marriage was BS too...who freaking cares who is married and who isn't? Quite frankly, with a 50% divorce rate, heterosexuals don't have much room to be on the high horse here...maybe gay marriage will raise that percentage giving more stability to American families...
All I can say is WTF? And Dad, sorry I had to use that kind of language, but seriously, WTF?
