Poll surprises out-of-touch NYT

[DesertFox]

When a New York Times poll found that the number of Americans who think it was right for the United States to go to war in Iraq rose from 35 percent in May to percent 42 percent in mid-July, rather than promptly report the new poll findings, the paper conducted another poll. As the Times' Janet Elder wrote Sunday, the increased support for the decision to go to war was "counterintuitive" and because it "could not be easily explained, the paper went back and did another poll on the very same subject."

Round Two found that 42 percent of voters think America was right to go into Iraq, while the percentage of those polled who said that it was wrong to go to war had fallen from 61 percent to 51 percent. The headline for Elder's piece read, "Same Question, Different Answer. Hmmm." But it should have read: "America's Paper of Record Out of Touch With American Public."

Elder wrote that growing support for the war seemed odd: "Once in a while a poll finding doesn't make sense." It occurred as Congress was debating the war and the Bush administration had to report that Iraq had failed to meet a number of benchmarks for progress.

That's the Slimes for ya. If they don't like the news, they reinvent it.

"Once in a while a poll finding doesn't make sense." "Sense" to the vermin at the New York al-Times is a poll that agrees with their hyper-leftist political PoV. If the people don't concur with its hate-America, destroy-Bush agenda, the only possible reason is that they were not properly indoctrinated in the politics of defeat by the leftist DBM.

This is the stuff that fiction is made of...

Its hard to believe that a group of people who run such an old and established institution can let their prejudices go so unchecked as to blind them utterly to the realities of life around them...

Future generations will look back at ours and scratch their heads in wonder at how such large segments of a presumed intelligent society can become so twisted - We will resemble the madness of Nazi Germany to those future observers...

The NYT has become surreal in its blind madness... And we are on the edge of becoming a Marxist Banana Republic...

Pinch's granddad is spinning in his grave.

"A man's judgment cannot be better than the information on which he has based it...[G]ive him no news or present him only with distorted and incomplete data, with ignorant, sloppy or biased reporting, with propaganda and deliberate falsehoods, and you destroy his whole reasoning process and make him something less than a man."
