Yep, that bunch lied again about a political poll. In an article entitled Wisconsin Poll: Support for Budget Cutting not for Weakening Collective Bargaining Rights they use numbers that many here would be happy to see. However, CBS managed a slanted poll to make the numbers look a bit different and it is interesting to see how it got reported on NBC. Read all of the Rasmussen article to find what real pollsters report and then read the next one to see how it got reported in a slanted way.

Now both links will work just as they do in the other thread I got when I tried to cure the sickness of both links. I screwed up so you have two opportunities to see both.
