You are exactly right.

Guilt's a funny thing.
it doesn't exactly take a rocket scientist to predict that this poll would set the 'bots a-shrieking. it's self-evident that anything that casts the slightest doubt on the god-like qualities of o and his minions will be attacked.
just ask joe the plumber.

Is that the best you can do?

For the record, he quit smoking around the middle of his campaign. However, 8 years later, Bush is still drinking. Not that it matters, since he was brain dead for decades prior to his fraudulent selection to the office of POTUS.

Where is your proof Bush is still drinking? You have none, that's just your own made up smear. But reportedly Barry IS still smoking. He just hides it.

THE PERSON WHO COMMISSIONED THE POLL SPEAKS

Well, if nothing else, he's certainly a charmer.

A lot of Obama supporters complained about Zogby due to the fact that they use party ID weightings from exit polls in the most recent election. Before the 2008 election, Democrats had around a 5-10 point lead in party ID, so it was stupid for Zogby to give so much weight to the 2004 results.

I clicked on that. Saw it was fivethirtyeight.com. Saw in the headline they call it a push poll, which Zogby says loud and clear it is NOT. SO - biased crap and I'm not reading that article. Good try though.
