Fair's fair. If they won't tell me who is doing the asking, I won't give them any answers.
Just for the fun of it, I answered a survey. It turned out to be a robo-thing with multiple choice answers. Unfortunately, their choices were obviously slanted. This wasn't a question, but this the way they went:

What do you think of President Obama?
A. He's a Muslim
B. He's not a natural born citizen
C. He's doing a bad job with the economy
D. He beats his wife.
After one question like that, I hung up.
