Where Would We Be Without NewsMax Polls?




Posted at 23:28 by Brad

NewsMax, a.k.a., “News for the Inbred and Illiterate,” has released yet another spiffy poll:

Ann Coulter’s new book “Godless: The Church of Liberalism” has created a storm of controversy, but an online poll sponsored by NewsMax.com reveals that Americans overwhelmingly support Coulter and strongly disagree with her critics.

A Sadly, No! poll reveals that most Americans believe typical NewsMax readers spend their days lying on sidewalks and eating their own earwax. Furthermore, 89% of Americans surveyed said NewsMax readers “shampoo their hair with Crisco and Mountain Dew” and “probably don’t have teeth.”

    I am part of the 5% who don’t think they shampoo at all… and that they have that one tooth up front.

    NewsMax is breaking new ground by only polling themselves.

    In a poll of NewsMax editors, support is overwhelming for Ann Coulter.

    In a poll of serial masturbators who live with their parents, support for Coulter is near-unanimous.

    The fact is, this snark proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that librulhomexislamofascists who want the U.S. to lose the Global War on Terror have no respect for those of us Real America who want to disband and conquer the Godless Church of Liberalism Global.

    That was an amazing amalgamation of Gary Ruppert, Ann Coulter and Swank. Bravo.

    Off topic, but what the hell is up with Eschaton right now?

    As of this writing, every post on the main page bar one is “another stupid open tread”.

    As a serial masturbator who lives with my parents, I object to this slander against serial masturbators who live with their parents.

    It looks like Atrios’s threadbot is going berserk. Check out the timing on the posts – they’re all within a few minutes of each other.

    one out of one Sadly No readers agrees that Newsmax failed statistics in college.

    Threadbot was doing that last night as well but Atrios cleaned up the mess to hide this information from the timezone neutral crowd.

    And I would like to congratulate the Sadly, No authors for breaking their alleged OCD as noted by Retardeau’s research efforts. Thankfully your latest poll should meet with wingnut approval as it took as much time and effort to conduct as the poll by NewsHacks.

    Hey- I am toothless, shampoo with Crisco, AND eat earwax (surprisingly tasty!)- and **I** don’t read NewsMax OR that Coulter skank. I mean, a girls gotta have principles, ya know?

    Why not have S,N! polls? They’d be at least as amusing as the Television Without Pity polls.

    Also, you never know when the earwax poll could slip into the mainstream media.

    NewsMax polls always remind me of the old TV Nation polls.

    Also, News Max found that among male virgin Jewish law students, support for Coulter was easily at 100%… and rising!

    73% of respondents to the S,N! poll feel that Newsmax readers should eat it, cobagz.

    And that’s different from every other day how?

    here Would We Be Without NewsMax Polls?

    Exactly where we are *with* NewsMax Polls. It’s spooky, sort of like a butterfly effect with no effect, and no butterfly! NewsMax Polls are a perfect null, a vacuum nature doesn’t abhor.

    “NewsMax is breaking new ground by only polling themselves.”

    And as David Letterman would say, “we all know how painful that can be!”

    I took a poll on the Bush tax cuts, it was probably not what they wanted to hear and I got the message that ” I had already taken the poll” . I had not but who am I to disagree with the almighty Newsmax. I took a screenshot of the response but who am I kidding. Hadn’t taken the poll. So much for polls.
