No Parking Zone for Republicans?


Flattened tires and signs defaced, this truck appears to be parked too close to the Macon County Dems Office, which is right across the street. I'm sure the truck driver must not have seen the "No Republican Parking Allowed" sign.
Seriously, this kind of vandalism is uncalled for and despicable.

Polls... Making stuff up

Polls???
In repsonse to an article by The Decatur Democrat over on blogDecatur...

Rather than base my opinion on the latest polls that may or may not even be well done, I gather news and opinion from many sources. I then attempt to make logical decisions and observations of my own. A short list of some of my sources can be found in this blog's links section. You may notice that there are some well known "Liberal" media included. I observe many different angles of a story and form my own opinion of an issue. This is the "Solid Logic" that I generally employ. Making stuff up isn't necessary, the Liberals give us more than enough of that.

I don't mind the personal attack by TDD, though, since it usually indicates a certain amount of frustration on the part of the attacker. And I can understand your frustration. When faced with the logic of truth, many liberals choose to simply look past it. Others tend to lash out against it with emotional zeal.


MaconCountyRepublican said it best in a response to a blog post by Decatur Democrat. The only polls that make any difference are elections.

Many other polls are simply news filler. The interpretation of the numbers is only a part of a poll taker's goal, and the design of the poll is just as important as the manipulation of the interpretation. The following Media Research Center article demonstrates the way that the numbers can be manipulated in the major media NEWS reports on the polls. When polls are the subject of a news story, I usually suspect that an editorial will be made, usually indirectly, usually as part of the "news story." In my opinion, using polls for news is really just lazy reporting or a way to editorialize an agenda.

ABC's Charles Gibson highlighted "the highest disapproval rating for Mr. Bush since he took office. But Bush's approval level was statistically unchanged...

Solid Logic vs. liberal emotionalism

I am not Vice President Richard Cheney and do not speak for him. However, if you listen to Mr. Jackson on the Jackson File blog, you'd probably assume that I am a result of a Halliburton conspiracy to clone the VP. I do have very similar views on many issues, and attempt to look at issues with solid logic rather than liberal emotionalism. That is one of the reasons I chose this moniker. It allows you to get an idea of where I'm coming from politically.

The Decatur Democrat is another good place to gauge the Democrat mood in the city and presents a good opportunity to counter rampant liberalism.

Lincoln Republican's DecaturConservative blog is a common sense oriented blog with well thought out posts and more patience with libs than I have.
