How about "in a poll conducted FIVE YEARS AGO?!?!?!" - MadKennyP, on 08/08/2008, -1/+4Ever take a statistics class?
- inactive, on 08/07/2008, -2/+4Kenny: a real "progressive" . . . !
- vexingmodstwo, on 08/07/2008, -2/+4God, Kenny. You're a tool.
- inactive, on 08/07/2008, -2/+4Kenny, got any polls from 1980 to use to show current public opinion on the issue?
- sgiffy, on 08/08/2008, -1/+3Search Google for "Rounding"
- 2612, on 08/07/2008, -0/+2I think there's a difference between being pro-choice, and wanting to deny equal medical care to babies born from failed abortions. Yes?
- chaimke, on 08/07/2008, -2/+4Come on people, don't be too harsh on him! By his own admission he's mad. What can you expect then? Anyone disagreeing with him is "brain dead," coming from a self confessed "mad" man, I consider it a compliment!
- MisterWonderful, on 08/08/2008, -2/+3My point? Yeah we're all good on your little dose of hate-speech. Follow?
Shouldn't you be at bible camp or something anyways sweetheart? - MadKennyP, on 08/07/2008, -4/+5My mistake. Here's a very recent poll:
"Do you think abortion should be legal in all cases, legal in most cases, illegal in most cases or illegal in all cases?"
Always or usually LEGAL: 57%
Always or usually ILLEGAL: 38%
Unsure: 5%
"In general, do you agree or disagree with the 1973 Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision that established a woman's right to an abortion?"
AGREE: 63%
DISAGREE: 33%
Unsure: 5%

- MisterWonderful, on 08/08/2008, -1/+2Hey 1/3rd is nearly everybody right? I mean, that's what I learned while getting my degree through Phoenix online....
;) - EnviroChem, on 05/22/2009, -1/+2Chaimke, you really need to learn about statistics and rounding so you don't make an ass of yourself. Let's say you do a survey and 55.5% of people thought one way, and 44.5% of people thought another way. For simplicity of reporting sake, this could be rounded to the nearest whole number. Since rounding rules require rounding up on 5 or higher, the survey would be reported as 56% to 45%, which of course adds up to 101%.
- MisterWonderful, on 08/08/2008, -1/+2That's an impressive self pwnage. Congrats!
- hwy61revisited, on 08/08/2008, -2/+2What's your point?
- chaimke, on 08/07/2008, -3/+3Must be another mistake! Let's see... 63+33+5=101% Woooow, that's a lot of people. Ever hear the old expression about statistics and statisticians?!?
- sgiffy, on 08/08/2008, -1/+1Perhaps he just believes such issues are best left to women and their doctors with whatever other advice they wish to seek, be it religious, familial, or otherwise
- MadKennyP, on 08/07/2008, -5/+3And you are a brain-dead idiot. I'd rather be a tool.
- MadKennyP, on 08/07/2008, -10/+2Nearly everyone? I think you got that backwards.
In a poll conducted this week, "70% of respondents said abortion should either be generally available, or available but with stricter limits than now. Just 22 percent said abortion should not be permitted."
