I really couldn't resist commenting on this, so please forgive me.

->Feds: Bush Campaign Used Pollster's Fake Data
->
->BRIDGEPORT, Conn. -- The owner of DataUSA Inc., a company
->that conducted political polls for the campaigns of
->President George W. Bush, Sen. Joe Lieberman and other
->candidates, pleaded guilty to fraud for making up survey
->and poll results.

...

->According to a federal indictment, Costin told employees
->to alter poll data, and managers at the company told
->employees to "talk to cats and dogs" when instructing
->them to fabricate the surveys.
->
->FBI Special Agent Jeff Rovelli said 50 percent of
->information compiled by DataUSA and transmitted to Bush's
->campaign was falsified, the Connecticut Post reported Thursday.

It's obvious that the 50% false data came from the D-pets, as cats are
upstanding, politically-aware citizens (big grin), while D-pets just
want someone to throw sticks and balls.

Hugs and Purrs,
Mark

Actually, I would expect cats to remain totally aloof from
the idiocy of human politics!  (Whether their slaves are
Democrats or Republicans, they're well-trained to provide
the requirements of pampered feline existence.)
