The dumbest poll of all-time

    A new Washington Post/ABC News poll measures approval ratings ... for Thanksgiving dinner.

    To sum up, 89 percent of Republicans "strongly favor" it, but only 77 percent of America-hating Democrats feel the same.

    In other news, recent polls have found that 92 percent of Tea Partiers strongly support telling kids that Santa isn't real, and 87 percent of Occupy Wall Street protesters strongly oppose showering every day.

    I disagree with your assessemnt, M. Creosote. I think nonsense polls like that are very valuable, since they remind us that a) all polls should be viewed with extreme caution and b) the great American public is lucky it doesn't walk into inanimate objects on a regular basis.

    Approval numbers would be a lot lower if the Lions sucked again this year.
