"So I'd have to say you did." I was obviously paraphrasing, but in no way implied anything unconditional, as in "scot free." BTW, the exact wording of the question was available to you, as I said, at pollingreport.com. But to save you the trouble, here it is: "If you had to choose, what do you think should happen to most illegal immigrants who have lived and worked in the United States for at least two years? They should be given a chance to keep their jobs and eventually apply for legal status. OR, They should be deported back to their native country." If I were asked this question in a poll, I would not read "scot free" into it anywhere. As for the rest, I think all the whining from the left about "Faux News" and bias at the WSJ is rather stupid and pointless, and while I'd agree that a majority of journalists probably do lean left, I don't think constant empty whining about left-wing bias in the "MSM" is any more worthwhile. Pollsters, in particular, put the questions out there for you to scrutinize, to pick and parse at your leisure, looking for proof they are rigging the responses by misleading respondents. Funny, but I've yet to see anyone actually uncover such a left-wing MSM pollster conspiracy. So whine about the "MSM" pollsters if you want, but unless you can point out how pollsters are duping respondents into answering according to some "bogus agenda", that's all you are doing. And repeating the whine doesn't prove it justified. It just makes you sound like the empty whiners from the left.
