LIBERAL BIAS ALERT- AP: People Want Government to "Do More" in Health Care Overhaul
Pundit Press ^ | 9/26/10 | Aurelius

Posted on 09/26/2010 6:10:03 AM PDT by therightliveswithus

I'm sure that you are aware of story after story about Americans against the Health Care Bill that the President helped push through Congress earlier this year. Rasmussen released a poll less than a week ago stating that 61% of people wanted the bill repealed. Politico wrote an article at the end of August in which more people opposed the health care reform than favored it.

Well, AP would like you to ignore all that.

According to a new "poll" released by AP this morning, "Americans who think the law should have done more outnumber those who think the government should stay out of health care by 2-to-1." That's right, according to AP, the people who are against the overhaul in Health Care are against it because it doesn't do enough.

And hey, while they were added, they decided to fiddle with the number of people against the bill. According to AP, exactly 40% of Americans are against the Health Care Bill. Exactly 30% are in favor. Exactly 30% are neutral, but they would be in favor if the government did more. Isn't it just lucky that the people were perfectly divided?

Would tort reform count as wanting more? How about allowing competitve selling across state lines?

AP has zero credibility after pulling stunts such as this.

They can produce all the fake polls they want. The real poll will be on November 2nd.

This crap poll was on the front page of The Record of Bergen County this morning.

The letters to the editor are getting quite pointed about the media bias.

That aid, they’ll keep on keeping on until they are completely out of business.

In general, the argument of liberals vs. conservatives is summed up in the title. Government should “do more” vs. Government should “do less”.

I read this article online on the Minneapolis RedStar Tribune’s website and was frankly incredulous. AP has exactly zero credibility.

Does anyone have a link to the POLL? Not to your blog. And not to a Yahoo story about the poll that does not link to the poll.

AP knows how to produce the results it wants: poll a sample of “adults” rather than likely voters. That way you get a much leftier group of moochers, including lifetime welfare types, illegals, and people who hold jobs but arent even registered to vote.

I stick with Ras and his likely voter polls. That’s how I have a handle on what the future will bring.

The rpm on the liberal spin machine is so slow now you have to time it with a sun dial.
