ebonlockSo William Bennett formulates the perfect wingnut polling question:
William J. Bennett: I know what the polling says. You don’t poll a war. But if you want a poll, here’s the one I’d write and we’ll see what response it gets: “Do you support pulling troops from Iraq if you know a bloodbath will follow and al Qaeda will declare victory?” Poll that question please. It’s the most accurate prognostication you can get.
To which JRod replies:
Buckley’s losing it. Here’s a far better question to reveal Americans’ true feelings on the war: “Do you support pulling troops from Iraq if you know that millions of ponies will die? Pink ones and purple ones with glittery hair, and even one with a pretty rainbow for a mane. The fancy-prancy ponies will be ground up for glue! Oh, and al Qaeda will cannibalize your family and rape your dog. Is that what you want, sissy-mary?” This question also filters out any liberal bias of the type that has skewed the polls slightly against the war, which is why you won’t see it on CNN.
