More than half of Mississippi GOP voters say Obama is a Muslim, new poll suggests

Yep. That must be why the left didn't ever say anything about Bush hearing directly from God and such. I suppose you never heard the leftist smear media trashing Bush's belief in God during his 8 years in office. Dumb ass.

because shrub brought his religion in to the public sphere where it did not belong

religion and beliefs should remain out of the public sphere

Did you even read the first sentence of your article?

"More than half of likely Republican voters in Mississippi say they think President Barack Obama is a Muslim, according to a survey conducted by Public Policy Polling, a Democratic polling firm."

Maybe you should research 2008 polls to see if the question was asked of likely Democratic voters in Mississippi.

that is exactly my point. why weren't likely democrat voters polled? why should i have research 2008? imo, this makes the poll somewhat skewed as it only goes after republicans. why leave out democrats?

edit:

i highly doubt the question has ever been put to dems by PPP.
 
That's how polls work, Yirked. Sometimes people poll Republicans; sometimes they poll just Republican primary voters; sometimes they poll Democrats; sometimes they poll Democrat primary voters; sometimes they poll everyone.

Welcome to polling. It's not an uber lefty conspiracy to jack results.
 
must defend democratic polsters must defend democratic polsters must defend democratic polsters

sure onceler....most polling polls both parties. the fact they didn't poll both parties on this issue makes me think it is nothing more than a hit piece. if they were truly concerned about likely voters, they would have polled everyone, not just one party.

but do go ahead and show what an apologist and hack you are. you're quite good at it.

Yurt, you're assuming that Dems weren't polled separately. Perhaps they were, but the results were not news worthy.

please.....even other polsters show both results. and the only way it wouldn't be newsworthy is if the dems voted the opposite of the pubs....surely they would show the contrast, that would make it even more newsworthy.

i remember nigel wanting a poll from me about a certain subject and the only poll he would accept had to include everyone, not just one party. yet, he so quick to defend this poll.

Email PPP and ask. Maybe they'll have an answer for you. I'm just saying you're jumping the gun.
 
right....so in order to get opinions about the republican primary.....they just "happen" to ask about obama's religious affiliation.

lol...you are truly a koolaid drinking hack. and what is truly hilarious...is that oncler claims they can't get pub opinion if they also ask dem opinion. my good lord, how do you make it through the day? you're only proving my point by continually hammering the fact they only wanted to ensnare the pubs with this question. thank you.
 
The view that Obama is a Muslim is more widespread among his political opponents than among his backers. Roughly a third of conservative Republicans (34%) say Obama is a Muslim, as do 30% of those who disapprove of Obama’s job performance. But even among many of his supporters and allies, less than half now say Obama is a Christian. Among Democrats, for instance, 46% say Obama is a Christian, down from 55% in March 2009.
