Gallup poll asks “What’s taboo with you?”

A Gallop poll of morally objectionable acts to Americans.

God god, man, is that a family or an elementary school?
God God, man, is that a family or an elementary school?

We know you’re going to do exactly what we did when we looked at the results of this Gallup poll.

You’re going to check to see if the majority of Americans agree with you or if they’re complete morons.

Looks like very few things are still considered verboten by the majority of Americans here in 2009. Here, from the most morally objectionable act to the least, are the percentages of Americans who object to:

92% Married men and women having affairs
91% Polygamy
88% Cloning humans
80% Suicide
63% Cloning animals
56% Abortion
56% Doctor assisted suicide
40% Sex between unmarried adults
47% Gay or lesbian relations
45% Bearing children outside marriage
36% Gambling
30% Divorce
30% Death penalty

One thing we found interesting or disturbing or contradictory or maybe all three: 56% of people find doctor-assisted suicide morally objectionable. The same percentage find doctor-assisted murder objectionable.

We’ve pored over the results of the poll and cannot determine what percentage of the American people find the mere thought of Joe Biden being vice president morally objectionable.

Gallup says America has two conservatives for every liberal

According to Gallup, “40% of Americans interviewed in national Gallup Poll surveys describe their political views as conservative, 35% as moderate, and 21% as liberal.

Is that Keith Olbermann we hear choking on his own tongue? James Carville going into cardiac arrest? Janeane Garofalo hyperventilating?

According to Gallup, “40% of Americans interviewed in national Gallup Poll surveys describe their political views as conservative, 35% as moderate, and 21% as liberal. This represents a slight increase for conservatism in the U.S. since 2008, returning it to a level last seen in 2004. The 21% calling themselves liberal is in line with findings throughout this decade, but is up from the 1990s.”

Don’t look now, but the emperor has no clothes and even his magnificent pecs aren’t distracting the populace any longer.
