Wah, kasian sekali donk, presiden mbush

Kesalahan lama percaya data pentagon
buat ngebom Iraq dilakukan lagi.

Dari milis tetangga:
Bukti pengakuan orang dalam (DR. Saiful Mujani) bahwa
survei LSI, Lembaga yang diketuai Denny JA, PhD tidak
selalu bisa dipercaya.
Artinya, di masa mendatang, para wartawan juga jangan
mudah-mudah dan mentah-mentah mengutip hasil survei
LSI begitu saja.
