Why would I - or anyone else for that matter - give a shit about the opinions of people who have absolutely zero presonal experience with or first-hand knowledge of the subject of the poll they're responding to? That makes no sense.
If you took a public opinion poll about polls, odds are that a majority would offer some rather unfavorable views of pollsters and the uses to which their work is put. Many potential respondents might simply slam down their telephones. Yet if you asked whether politicians, business leaders, and journalists should pay attention to the people’s voices, almost everyone would say yes. And if you then asked whether polls are, at least, one tool through which the wishes of the people can be discerned, a reluctant majority would probably say yes to that too.
There's a fascinating disertation on this here if you're interested:

Forget about war with China or Russia. We're looking right down the barrel of what will be the next world war - Muslim vs. Non-Muslin countries around the world. I'm half convinced we're on the threshold of that right now, especially if this Gaza-Israel thing escalates. Juss' sayin'...

This guy in The Villages thought installing the solar panels was a good idea. The jughead forgot he lives on a golf course, about 175 yards from the 14th tee box.

I actually believe self checkout was designed to make shoplifting socially acceptable, like when they changed from actual food stamps to credot cards.
ReplyDeleteThe next conflict is absolutely coming against the Muslim horde- wonder how all those people in places like Michigan and Minnesota who imported them by the bushel,basket are feeling these days?
ReplyDeleteSolar panels in The Villages:
ReplyDeletethat's a pretty good grouping at 175 yards (that's over 500'), I don't know if I coud do as well with my AR-15.
Well I too agree that it’ll be the Middle East which will ignite the world’s next major conflict. However I don’t want the powers that be make Israel back off the Gaza offensive at all. The moslem terrorists pull this shit off all of the time. You notice they actually never engage in war only cowardly acts of terror. I’m 67 years old and this has been going every bit as long as I been alive. It’s time the USA and the Brits unleash our entire military on these pukes
ReplyDeleteMinnesota poll, that place is a leftist shithole anyway.

Seriously?
Whaaaaat??? Ann Coulter? Fisting? Please explain.
ReplyDeleteSome leftist created a parody to try an embarrass Coulter and at the same fulfill their own juvenile desires.

When you get a discount for using the self checkout, it might have some appeal.
ReplyDeleteUntil then, yes, most people will take their own discount.
The logo of that Kare11 station reads kind of like Karen :)
