You know, I have to admit that sometimes CNN.com does things right. For example, the QUICKVOTE. You know what I'm talking about. It's that little two or three choice questionnaire on the bottom right of the main page. Today's box o' fun:
Who would you rather have overseeing operations at U.S. ports?
* Arab-based ports company
* U.S.-based mafia
Quirky polls like this lead me to believe that perhaps today's news media is slightly aware of the US government and it's "pick the lesser of two evils" strategy of policy-making.
Of course, the polls are probably composed by some sarcastic jackass like myself who derives pleasure from inserting anvilicious digs at society whenever possible. Not that I'd know anything about that.
Interested in results? Why, you can opt to click the ViewResults link without voting, exactly like the electoral system in REAL LIFE.
*Arab-based ports company: 38%
*US-based mafia: 62%
No wonder The Sopranos is back. Looks like Tony's got a job to do.
