Gary Trudeau: Totalitarian Maniac
Filed under: US Elections
Doonesbury cartoonist Garretson Beekman "Garry" Trudeau (kinda scary looking, isn't he?) has a website under the aegis of Slate magazine which includes a "straw poll" feature where he asks for reader opinions on topical issues. The current poll asks: "Is Mormonism an issue for you?"
Proving what a true liberal and democrat he is, Trudeau does not offer readers the option of answering this question: "No, and it never was." In every one of the three choices they are given, they must either say Mormonism is an issue for them now or it was in the past. Putting a nice cherry on top of his democratic cake, Trudeau doesn't allow readers to see the results of the poll unless they first vote in it.
