A dumb new poll proves that 38% of Americans still believe Ronald Reagan was a "great" president—so great, in fact, that his dyed hair and rouged cheeks should be on American money! Of the last six presidents, Reagan's the clear winner in this hypothetical contest. Maybe because he's the only dead one?

Americans are not a joyful lot at the moment, with only 33 percent of Americans reporting that they were very happy in a recent poll.

Despite the fact that it's been the law of the land for more than three years now, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, ratified by President Obama in 2010, is still a mystery to many. So much so that a new poll from the Kaiser Family Foundation finds that four out of 10 Americans have no idea it's still a…

Hawaii! Most of you occupies an island chain land formation that is also one of the most beautiful words in all languages. Photos suggest you have so many flowers that necklaces had to be created. The current U.S. President is from your tropical climate and the nation's premier fictional dreamboat, Don Draper, just…

A broken piñata shaped like a dinosaur. An HP LaserJet printer infested with bed bugs. An old, empty potato chip bag they found under the bleachers. All of these things would make for a better lay than Kristen Stewart, a millionaire movie star currently in her peak fertility age, according to a recent survey of…

The polling wizards at Quinnipiac University have released a new poll assessing Americans' opinions of a wide array of hot button issues, including women in combat, gun control, and abortion. While there are some surprises here, there are also some major "ya doi"s. So let's get into it.

There was a time when Oprah Winfrey was the most important voice in America. She created careers with a warm embrace. She ended them with a disapproving head shake. And she selected presidents with arms outstretched.

Today is a very good day to be New York Police Department Commissioner Ray Kelly. A new poll puts his approval rating at 75 percent, the highest yet. It is also a good day to be a criminal in New York City; 2012 saw a significant spike in the crime rate.

Global warming (or "climate change"), the well-documented rise in our planet's temperatures due to the heat-trapping effects of carbon dioxide, is a completely accepted phenomenon among people who—due to their fundamental rationality and common sense—are not idiots. But among our nation's idiots, it has always been a…

So there's a new poll, see, and one thing that makes this poll special is that three quarters of the respondents were just regular people all over the world, and one quarter of respondents were "marketing professionals." Got it? A poll heavily weighted towards marketing professionals. That's the setup. Now, here is…

I see all these people out here talking about how the presidential election this year "now appears to be a dead heat." Yeah right. You go right on ahead with that, Sherlock. Feed that one into the computer, good plan.

Remember the George W. Bush years? They almost seem like a bad dream, don't they? Years of terror, and militarism, and war, and unaccountability, and even, perhaps most repugnant, years of torture of foreign prisoners by we, the Americans, the beacons of freedom. Well, the Bush years have thankfully passed. And now,…

Today is National Coffee Day, one of countless non-holidays that would go unnoticed if not for the internet.

Sure, Barack Obama appears to be holding a slim but consistent lead in many reputable national polls. But what if we just changed those polls, so that Mitt Romney is winning? That's the theory behind UnSkewed Polls, a new site from conservative blogger Dean Chambers:

Today, influential music-crit site Pitchfork really italicized its "influential" modifier by releasing the results of its Pitchfork People's List, a Converse-sponsored "readers' poll" of the best albums from the first 15 years of the site's existence (1996-2011). There were—to invoke the words Radiohead, which had…

Barack Obama has a four-point lead over Mitt Romney, but that's not nearly as dramatic as Obama's lead among African American voters — 94 percent to 0 percent.

The NYPD's "stop and frisk" program is essentially a program in which black people are stopped and frisked due to their display of criminal risk factors, like being nonwhite. A shocking new poll finds that black people tend to believe there's something wrong with the program.

Eight out of ten Americans believe in angels. Almost five out of ten Americans are creationists. Thirty percent of Americans either disagree with or are undecided on this newfangled Declaration of Independence thing. So I guess it should come as no surprise that, after four years in office and two years on the…

"Given the number of robberies and other crimes where the perpetrators wear hoodies, should the garment be banned in the province. Why or Why Not?"
