Newsweek's numbers are a bit out of line with reality. I guess
that's
what happens when you let an agenda get in the way of the truth.

I assume you didn't like the way Newsweek phrased their survey
questions.
Do you know what they were, or do you disapprove without having that
information?

I disapprove of the constant negative barrage of misinformation that
continually comes out of Newsweek.

There are numerous ways that polling data can be manipulated or
"shaped"
to fit an agenda. When one poll differs substantially from three other
major polls, you have to begin to wonder why...particularly when you
add
it to the fact that they consistently put out negative info on the
President.

OK - you're an expert. Provide us with 3 "impartial" survey questions.

1 - What is your name?

2 - Where do you live?

3 - What is your age?

4 - Do you approve of Bush's current handling of the Iraq situation? Yes?
No?

Would that last question be biased?

It could be if they used the earlier questions to profile you...and then
hung up if you didn't fit their sample population.
