So they did the survey in Manchester, not a center of lake knowledge in my opinion, after a well-designed PR campaign that told the people in Manchester that the lake was full of dangerously fast boats. They got the result they wanted even though the people that they polled had no first-hand knowledge of boating on the lake.

In the end they got "hard evidence". That is what they wanted and that is what they bought!

Do not get fooled by this!! Of course it makes no sense. They paid for a survey that would support their cause. That is exactly what it is. The survey is complete crap!! They know it and we know it. However, it supports their cause just like the other smoke and mirrors they use.

I hope that in the end, the Senate will see through all of this and do the right thing. I believe the Senate knows crap when they see it.

This is the post that started this funding discussion. BI can spin it all he wants. I did not mention a specific poll. My point was they bought a poll and the poll was biased towards their desired result and taken in an area that is not close to the lake at all.

I believe the statements I made have been justified.

The survey is crap!!!!

Thanks all!
