You better look at this, girlfriend.

I, personally, found this remark unnecessary and unfortunate (unless you are truly her girlfriend, in which case I suggest you consider that a private fact <g>.)

There has been many unnecessary and unfortunate remarks made on this thread; this is addressed by name to you but intended for a wider audience. Please don't feel personally singled out; SI has no "to all" posting function!

For one, I would prefer that this thread focus on facts, educated opinions, and rational discourse. I would like there to be one place where it can be shown that the rancors consuming Washington are not universal to all Americans, but can be overcome by people of vastly differing opinions but a shared commitment to respect for others no matter how much we may disagree with them.

I am not the thought police, nor trying to be. If you prefer personal attacks, you are free to make them. But I am free also to invite you to do otherwise. I hope you will consider this message not a censure but an invitation. And I hope you will accept the invitation.

Thank you.

With all due respect to you, You seem to have missed the fine prints of the link you provided for the poll numbers, it says:

This poll is not scientific and reflects the opinions of only those
Internet users who have chosen to participate. The results cannot be
assumed to represent the opinions of Internet users in general, nor the public as a whole.
