Only to a simple minded fool who can't even comprehend what an average is
could this be true.
To almost everyone else, which is like up to 93% of the American public,
knowing which way Gallup is biased makes even their biased polls very
useful.

For one thing, when a credible publication like The Statistical Handbook on
the American Family notes that 86% believe that sodomy is wrong, and
Worldnet Daily finds that only 6% believe fags should be included in the
GOP, and Be Counted finds that only 9% believe that fags should be able to
get married, and when the Field Poll shows that 55% favor initiatives to ban
sodomy, and when the Howard W. Odum Survey shows that 72% oppose the
legalization of sodomy, and when a Pascoe Poll shows that only a third of
Vermont's voters want sodomy to be "legalized", and when a Harris Poll shows
that 83% oppose "same-sex marriages", and when two thirds of California
voters passed an initiative to BAN "gay marriages", then when Gallup comes
along and gaily and delightfully announces on March 10,1999:
"Some Change Over Time in American Attitudes towards
Homosexuality, but Negativity Remains"

then you know you have either faggots of jews running the show at that
once-credible organization--which means it's no longer credible.
