Wow. I just got a push-poll call
asking if I supported a health care bill that would pay for abortions and "open the door to death panels." (I thought that last meme was dead.) I answered "Yes," and "Yes, but only if it automatically includes push-pollers" to the second.

I was just hoping someone would eventually listen to the recordings.

2. This is what's truly sad about it
The fact that such push pollers exist in the first place provides evidence of the volume of stupidity in America that will fall for such nonsense.

It's just like the 2 or 3 chain emails that I get each week that are obvious bullshit that was debunked 10 or more years ago. When a moran hears something completely fucking stupid that is somewhat in line with their ideology, not only will they believe it, but they will tell at least 20 of their friends without even bothering to check and see if they are showing their bare ass of stupidity for all the world to see.
