Does President Bush view exit polls as equally sinful in the eyes of Jesus as nasty words? My Scott McClellan de-coder rings translates "looking into that" as "yes."

QUESTION: Since the President presumably supports the Federal Communications Commission's prohibiting obscene language on the air, doesn't he think that the often lying exit polls and unsubstantiated projections should also be banned from the air on Election Day?

MR. McCLELLAN: Well, I think that that's something that people are going to continue to look at in this election and analyze. I don't think the President, nor myself, tend to get into an analysis of the media, or critiquing the exit polls. But I think others are looking at those issues. There is a problem with some of those exit polls getting out ahead of time, and I'm sure people will continue to look at the issue.

QUESTION: And he hopes they will --

MR. McCLELLAN: I'm sure people will continue to look at it.
