Commissioned Bias

August 27th, 2006

In one of Fox’ more recent commissioned polls, they asked, do you want President Bush to succeed? Predictably, a ton of Democrats said no, and Republicans said yes. My answer to the question is in-between: I want him to succeed when he’s doing the right thing (I wish for Iraq to become peaceful and stable, for instance) but I hope he fails miserably at making budget deficits and tearing apart Social Security. I can’t see what the point of the poll was aside from trying to build Conservative outrage, and there was some, predictably, all over the radio and the Conservative blogosphere.
