A Ten Foot Poll
The White House—that is, co-presidents Obama and Gibbs—are crowing that a Washington Post/ABC poll is proclaiming that 57% of Americans would consider a public healthcare option. To put it another way, which ABC would if Bush were President, “Nearly one out of two Americans despises healthcare proposal.”
Of course, WaPo/ABC News conducts polls with the same science as conducted by, say, HuffPo. To translate that, 57% of Americans favoring public option translates to 42% of Americans favor a public option when done correctly.
Божію Поспѣшествующею Милостію Мы, Дима Грозный Императоръ и Самодержецъ Всероссiйскiй, цѣсарь Московскiй. The Czar was born in the steppes of Russia in 1267, and was cheated out of total control of all Russia upon the death of Boris Mikhailovich, who replaced Alexander Yaroslav Nevsky in 1263. However, in 1283, our Czar was passed over due to a clerical error and the rule of all Russia went to his second cousin Daniil (Даниил Александрович), whom Czar still resents. As a half-hearted apology, the Czar was awarded control over Muscovy, inconveniently located 5,000 miles away just outside Chicago. He now spends his time seething about this and writing about other stuff that bothers him.
