Why, thank you. Every bit of bad news about Bush puts a smile on my face!

But that article has Bush's approval rating at 45%. Weren't you telling me
that it's been in the 30's?

"A total of 1,006 randomly selected adults were interviewed by telephone
Aug. 25-28. The margin of sampling error for the results is plus or minus
three percentage points."

Just another meaningless "newsmaking" poll for the WaPo

My own personal survey of friends and acquaintances, although not
completely scientific and unbiased, has Bush's approval rating at 0%,
unchanged from a week ago.

My friends and acquaintances have him at 100%...bringing the average up to
50%...which is almost the same as Rasmussen's polling data.

You took stats classes, I'm sure, so you know how survey techniques can skew
results. Survey only stupid people, and you get a 100% approval rating.
Simple, yes?

I dunno about your schools, Doug...but in my schools, the smart people were
the ones who scored 100% on tests. The stupid ones are the ones who scored
zero.

Yeah, but the stupid ones scored 100% wrong.
