RNC Survey

I was pointed to this link to a survey being run by the Republican Party for its members. It's pretty hilarious. The wording is so slanted I don't know how they even expect serious results.

Examples:
5. Should Republicans unite to block new federal government bureaucracy and red tape that will crush future economic growth?

Yes
No
Undecided

11. Should bureaucrats in Washington, DC be in charge of making your health care choices instead of you and your doctor?

Yes
No
Undecided

The best question, and one that I almost registered just to answer was this one:

1. Why did Republicans lose the White House and Congressional seats in the 2008 elections? Check all that apply.
Iraq War
Poor Economy
Government's Response to Katrina
Republican Scandals
Republicans acted like Democrats
President Bush's policies
Liberal Media
Other:


How I would love to check every item except "Liberal Media" and "Republicans acted like Democrats" (what's that supposed to mean anyway?) and then go to town on "Other". Here are some I would add:

- Nominating an unqualified person like Sarah Palin to be VP
- Inciting racism
- Allowing torture

What would you add?

- Trying to institutionalize spying on our citizens

- Voting down health care for children (SCHIP)

- Championing the kind of deregulation that made our current economic crisis not only possible, but likely
