Here’s the latest result of the NBC News/Wall Street Journal Poll; 79% of Americans think that government workers should have the same collective bargaining rights as unions and only 19% say no. They however feel that workers should contribute in the following ways; 68% feel that contributions should be made to raise their retirement, 63% said they should raise their healthcare contributions and 58% said one year salary freeze. The poll continues; how to balance deficits, the most unacceptable ways they say are cutting Medicare, Social Security, and kindergarten through 12th grade education. And the most acceptable ways are eliminating tax credits for oil and gas industries, eliminating earmarks for congress. And the number one most acceptable way would be going out the millionaire tax. Well you weren’t paying attention folks because not enough of you voted in the last election. But I think your heart’s in the right direction. It does show that the Tea Party people are polls apart from reason.

The Faux News Network Principles


A) We distort, you abide
B) Or we retort if you deride, unless we choose not to
C) Complete sentences are acceptable in lieu of complete truths
D) It’s OK to criticize the 2006 Democratic Congress for all America’s problems since 2001
E) We shoot from the flip
F) We’re not always accurate but we’re always certain
G) On what we feel is wrong in this world, we can’t stop people from saying I don’t agree or I don’t care, but we won’t let them say I didn’t know
H) The director’s board has a whim of irony
I) In times of emergency, we should rally around our President: In times of democracy he should do the same for us
J) We proudly plagiarize in advance, examples available upon request
K) It’s easy to be fun-based when you’re fact based
L) Good news parody makes for good news parity
M) And, of course, our goal is and always will be to be the most trusted name in Faux News
