The republicans are AOL poll stuffing again. What a surprise.
What makes you think that? Just curious.

Experience with Republican conservatives on gun discussion boards.
Anytime an internet survey pops up that impacts gun owners, the word
goes out to every gun board to log onto the site and swamp the survey.

So you're saying that Obama supporters don't have computers and don't
read liberal blogs/forums/sites that tell them to vote at this or that
place?

Uh-huh.


Uhh, Jack...I think the question and the response went right over your
head. What was being discussed was a particular AOL poll, the responses
to which reminded me of the "slam that poll" posts I seen on gun boards.

I never mentioned nor alluded to Obama. In point of fact, I don't pay
the slightest attention to the AOL polls on any subject, or polls
administered as AOL administers its polls.

Nothing went over my head. You dismiss the poll as being flawed
because of this "gun forum" thing you believe exists, but are now
trying to dodge the fact that the same thing exists among libs. Where
are they in this poll?

And actually, you do pay quite a bit of attention to these AOL polls.
You did the last time it was posted, and you've made 5 posts to this
thread alone. It seems to worry you. :-)

I'm not biased on any poll opinion. here's a separate (non AOL) from a
month ago:

No, Jack...I paid attention to a perfectly reasonable poster named Tim.

I have no idea whether "libs" play the same sort of games with polls of
this type, nor do I care. These sorts of polls are meaningless, as I
have stated several times.

You've changed your handle, but you're still the same old jackoff, er,
jackgoff.

With Agent, you have the option of sending a post immediately, or
saving it in the outbox until you elect to send everything at once.
That way you can do the reading and writing offline.

Your post count is up to six on this "meaningless" poll, and now
you're using childish insults. It must mean nothing to you.

As I stated, I was responding to a decent poster here named Tim. Your
thoughts on this or any other matter mean nothing to me, jackoff.

You can do that with Mozilla Thunderbird, too, and probably several
other clients. But that doesn't mean it was the "trick" that was used.
Good guess, though.
