In an unbiased poll, a mere 6.5% fully gave their support to gay marriage. This is a startling contrast to the reported 60% in full support the Canadian government reported last week, which leads many to believe that the government is bolstering their figures for a hidden agenda.


Either that, or else people are deliberately lying because they don't want to be seen in public as being anti-gay.

Paraplegic left-wing tree hugging Baltimore university professor Andre Answer


Apart from his unnecessary reference to Answer being a paraplegic, which lends no weight whatever to the subject-matter of his article, Mr. Ivanovich's description of the professor hardly seems "unbiased" when contrasting the poll (by whom?) as "unbiased".

It makes me wonder as to what Ivanovich's biases are. I would treat this "lack" of bias with kid gloves, quite frankly.

This source makes Fox News look like a scientific scholar's journal. Hasn't this web news already been posted before? They get a C+ for creative writing, but I don't find them that entertaining. Real life is much funnier.

I find Professor Answer's emotional boycott of centrist and right-wing trees totally unacceptable, and typical of the communist totalitarian instincts of all those I disagree with.

Anybody who thinks a site called "The Green Rabbit" is serious news has clearly already been shipped off to some obscrure island.
