The self described "progressive" web site Daily Kos (whose posters include political celebrity bloggers such as Sen. John Kerry and Keith Olbermann) was forced to admit that its much touted and much quoted polls were complete fabrications! Today, discussing his previously released polls, founder Markos "kos" Moulitsas admitted "while we don't know if some or all of the data was fabricated or manipulated beyond recognition, we know we can't trust it."

These include the polls which "proved" everyone everywhere loves Obama and supports his healthcare bill, as well as those polls which "proved" opponents of Obama are ignorant racist conspiracy theorists.
Will all the news outlets which approvingly cited these polls, and hosted "kos" on their expert panels, now issue retractions?
