Midknight Review -- new and revised: The very biased USA Today has commissioned Gallup to poll Wisconsin. Results: 60% support collective bargaining. Really ??

Understand that anytime you see a "USA Today/ Gallup poll," you are reading polling results by Gallup or whatever the polling firm, with questions supplied by - in this case - USA Today. Such polls are innately biased and in this instance, to the Left.

We draw that last conclusion because I believe USA Today is a rank Marxist rag when it comes to anything political. This bias is reflected in everything from its sports coverage to the listings in its want ad section, insisting on politically correct language rather than the popular language of middle America.

The polling result is listed in our headline. 60% sounds substantial. Kind of sounds as if the people support the methodology the current teacher revolt.

Two observations: one, I cannot find a statement as to the question(s) asked in this survey. Secondly, whether support for collective bargaining is as high as suggested, it is a rather common polling result that the American voter does not support the teacher's riot and illegal walk-out.

I must add that Gallup often presents its methodology for public review. It is not Gallup I suspect. Rather, it is USA Today. To be sure, Gallup has a left leaning bias; Rasmussen has a right leaning bias. Neither allows this bias to substantially effect their individual polls when they supply their own questions and run use their own methodologies.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
