Interesting Poll at MSNBC

MSNBC has an interesting poll up, go check it out.

If you don't feel like clicking over, here's the poll:


Do you agree with President Bush that his catching a 7.5-pound perch is the high point of his presidency so far?

Yes, everything else he's done pales in comparison.
------------------------- 47%
No, be serious -- the man has accomplished great things.
------ 12%
Ummm, I think something got lost in translation.
---- 8.9%
Yes, but that's nothing compared to shooting a lawyer in the face.
---------- 20%
I don't know -- this administration keeps everything so secret that it's hard to make comparisons.
------ 12%
That's pretty damned snarky for an MSNBC poll. Serious answers would be "No, be serious..." and "Ummm, I think something..." The other three are just cheap shots at the President.

A real poll would have been, "do you think Bush actually said that catching a fish was his greatest achievement or was something lost in translation?" Not that I'm complaining. I just thought that it's pretty indicative of the feeling of the country when a major news organization can post a poll that is essentially snark.
