You gonna quibble about two percentage points in a poll
that has an error rate greater than two percent?

I'd say you just lost your argument.


So you admit you falsified percentage ratings in an approval poll.
Congratulations, you can apply for an anchor position at Fox News or CNN.

Or, if television isn't your game, you could be an editor with Washington
Post or NY Times.


I 'falsified' nothing.

From the site named:

"One-thousand-fifty-seven adults were polled
December 10-13 prior to Saddam's capture.
The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus
three percentage points."

I would be just as correct saying Bush had a 60
percent approval rating as I would be saying
Bush has a 56 percent. It is within the margin
of error of the poll.

Either way, you lose. Bush is popular and as
long as the economy, which is roaring along
continues to do so and all indications show
it will, Mr. Bush will be a two-term president.
