A majority of Americans want the Bush Administration to get court approval before eavesdropping on people inside the United States, even if those calls might involve suspected terrorists....56% of respondents....said the government should be required to first get a court warrant to eavesdrop on the overseas calls and e-mails of U.S. citizens when those communications are believed to be tied to terrorism.....This survey's credibility didn't even last twenty-four hours:
GOP critics are hailing an Associated Press-Ipsos poll purporting to show that the public opposes both continued GOP control of Congress and the Bush Administration's terrorist wiretapping program.

Asked if they lean either "strongly" or "moderately" to either the Democrat or Republican Party, 52% of Ipsos respondents identified themselves as Democrats. Just 40% called themselves Republican.
Push-polling is just one more artifact of the extinct media monopoly the obsolescence of which its holdover practioners will never grasp. Which has the virtue of limiting those fooled by it to the crazoids of the left-wing echo chamber whose electoral losing streak will remain blessedly unbroken.
