Do you think Congress should repeal the affordable care law?

yes: 43%
no: 55%
undecided: 2%

439 votes

i have a feeling the results they are getting are because of the way they worded it.

Uneducated voter: NO!! Why I want to repeal something that says it is "affordable"? I mean, that Patriot Act must be a good thing, too, because it has that "feel good" name to it. :rolleyes:

Vote early and often. ;)

This is a bullshit poll that is a contradiction. Watch this.. from the link.



Do you think Congress should repeal the affordable care law?

Congress may appeal the Affordable Care Act. Do you think they should?

So what in the hell does a Yes vote mean versus a No vote?

First they ask whether they should REPEAL it. Then they ask whether congress should APPEAL it.

APPEAL= an earnest request for aid, support, sympathy, mercy, etc.

REPEAL= to revoke or withdraw formally or officially

The level of doublethink in this poll is simply astounding.

Nothing like asking two contradictory questions so you can use the results however you want to. Most likely an honest error made by the idiot at the station in charge of making these polls.

Btw - The poll says it closes January 25th.
