Oh, the depths to which they will sink.
« on: August 13, 2015, 09:59:13 AM »


I don't know who sponsored this "poll," but I thought it was interesting how they seem to be forcing a "NO" vote on the question, "Should GOP fight Obama on gun control?"

Notice how tiny the "exit" "X" is?

Notice how it's within the "NO" choice?

Ya think maybe a certain proportion of folks who want to just click out of the ad miss the "X" and hit the "NO?"

Ya think this is a biased poll?

Yes?  Then you must be paranoid, like me.

No, you are not just paranoid. This is blatant.
Maybe a rare occurence, but then you only have to get murdered once to ruin your whole day.

That is an advertisement.  I bet anywhere you click on it would push you to a page begging for money or selling something.

Wouldn't suprise me if clicking to exit the ad also counted as clicking the No.
"so I ended up getting the above because I didn't want to make a whole production of sticking something between my knees and cranking. To me, the cranking on mine is pretty effortless, at least on the coarse setting. Maybe if someone has arthritis or something, it would be more difficult for them." - Ben

I doubt there was even a poll behind it.
