Today in Totes Important Online Polls

This morning, NBC's Today Show reported on a Christian school that fired a teacher after she had sex out of wedlock.

Do you know what'd be totally frightening and not-at-all informative? A poll on the matter.

If the poll is about the rights and obligations of the various parties involved (which is how the question appears to be worded), I really don't care what random anonymous people with internet access think of the myriad legal issues involved.

Quick Poll
Marbury vs. Madison was:
a) A national travesty
b) Awesome
c) Delicious
d) The best game of the season


Pointless, no?

If the issue is what random people think about a hateful person committing a hateful act, again, I'm not so interested in hearing about it. If you look at the comments (don't look at the comments), this is exactly what appears to be happening. This is what always happens. Thanks NBC, for creating a “dialogue” where there really shouldn't be one.
