Wheaties

A good way to start the day: Reading about the conservative American Family Association's poll on gay marriage going bust. It seems that the polls didn't quite show what they wanted them to show ... so they are trashing them. I mean, why would the uber-right group send a poll to Congress showing that people actually favor gay marriage??? It gives me hope (even if gays did vote in the poll).

The AFA rep's quote is choice:

It just so happens that homosexual activist groups around the country got a hold of the poll -- it was forwarded to them -- and they decided to have a little fun, and turn their organizations around the country (on to) the poll to try to cause it to represent something other than what we wanted it to. And so far, they succeeded with that.

Although the emphasis is mine, that sentence really struck me. It exposes just how twisted statistics can get. Objective truth? Not anymore, honey. Not anymore. Just watch out - cause that 'so far' bit at the end kinda scares me. Sounds like they have something up their bible pushing sleeves.

Today, I get N. back, btw.
