Rasmussen Reports - what a load of crap headlines on the home page
http://www.rasmussenreports.com/

Under top headlines, Rasumussen provides a few stastics on the hot topics of the day. I suppose when the statistic somehow benefits the Bush administration we'll actually put the number in there but if it makes Bush bad we'll just 'Most Americans' and hide the real facts

The top 3 headlines are:

42% Say US Winning War on Terrorism (it's not 50% but it's an approvement for Bush with a nice bump from yesterdays news)
85% Support English as official US Language (well that feeds into the racists)
Most Americans claim US Heading in Wrong Direction (well, that's 27% of America so we better not put that number in the headline)

Report the facts evenly or get the hell out of the business

1. Report the facts evenly or get the hell out of the business
I like option #2 the best. Their figures are always highly questionable, IMO.
