Well now Ace of Spades took it a step further, taking a wider look at how other news agencies are similarly downplaying the alarming statistic with headlines that spin the results positively.
It's worth the read, although I have noticed that at least one headline has changed since Ace's post:
Let's check the headlines, eh?
USAToday: Poll: Most Muslims seek to adopt American lifestyle
Wow! "Most!" Awesome!
Personally, I'm a little bit more worried about the 26% of young Muslim males who want to kill me, but it's good to know that "most Muslims" seek to adopt the "American lifestyle." (Which may or may not involve killing Americans.)
That USA Today headline now reads: "Poll: American Muslims reject extremes."

May 23, 2007 - 01:13 ET by daveinbocaYes, sixty percent think that 9/11 was not done by Arabs. How did this human trash get into the US? Via Canada across the Windsor Bridge from Ontario to Detroit, a city people are leaving at a rate unparalleled in US history, except for a few ghost towns in Nevada.
Michiganistan should be cordoned off from the civilized parts of the Midwest.
Poll results skewed again
May 23, 2007 - 01:30 ET by Cool ArrowThe real story is that this 60% really do know 911 was a MusloFascist attack but get a kick out of rubbing America's face in its own wounds. This is more dangerous than them thinking our wound is self inflicted.
Americans themselves act as though you aren't intellectually evolved unless you clearly see a conspiracy behind every tree.

May 23, 2007 - 06:23 ET by Senior ChiefFrance has more than 25% muslim population, who terrorized their cities last Summer and early this month after Zarkosy won the elction. If these muslim population doesn't get checked, expect civil disturbance and disobedience from these isalmo-fanatics. I forgot to mention...the democracks and leftoid media enabled them.

May 23, 2007 - 05:26 ET by ThisnThatI wonder if the people who took this poll are now going to be targeted for death? That'll sure cut down on the number of similar polls in the future.
I'll bet organizations like CARE and their lib apologizers will be coming out of the woodwork saying how unfair this portrayal is, and how insensitive it all is. And then appologies will be demanded; reparations will be asked for; and affirmative action plans will be drawn up to repair past and future damages done to the sensitive psyches of these poor american muslims.
But, at least the USA Today got it right -- those very same people certainly reject extremes, don't they?
Muslocrats
May 23, 2007 - 05:35 ET by Cool ArrowI fear the next creature to appear in this evolution you describe is the Muslocrat. In their zeal to show their inclusiveness of all who hate conservatism, the Dems platform will be mostly Muslocrat.
Conservatives will be relegated the role of pleading that Radical Islam hijacked Mohammedanism which hijacked the Democrap party.
And then some good President
May 23, 2007 - 05:41 ET by ThisnThatAnd then some good President will (accidently?? on purpose) mis-pronounce it as MusloRAT, and the fun will begin.

May 23, 2007 - 10:13 ET by Phan of TruthIf one in four American Muslims think that suicide bombing is acceptable to admit to honestly, how many didn't respond honestly? I have to think some--and even a quarter is a frightening thought.
"The Law of Unintended Consequences" - Armageddon
May 23, 2007 - 12:30 ET by w0tmBy spinning or ignoring truth and reality, the Politically Correct liberal left brings ever closer the Armageddon we should all fear above all else. Including them. They believe they are doing what it best for all of us "who don't know any better" but they are, instead, again proving the "the law of unintended consequences". Afterwards, they'll just (again) say, "Oops, sorry, this is not what we thought would happen". Actually they never apologize but that's what they would have said thousands of times since 1963 if they'd ever had an ounce of honesty.
If the unimaginable happens and something like Phoenix being turned into glass or even a dirty bomb exploding in downtown Boston causing few deaths but followed by the deaths of thousands from mass panic, it will unleash the mindless mob violence element that hides in the shadows of every society. However and why it happens, never really matters afterwards. Once begun, it can rarely be stopped. Violence takes on a life of its own. Hitler planned anarchist violence but, other times, it has erupted spontaneously. They all have ever growing contained pressure in common. I pray this never happens in our country or anywhere and I hope everyone reading this feels the same way. No matter how much you and are disgusted by the sheer idiocy of the left. These people in the shadows are far greater in number than anyone ever imagines. Many of your neighbors who would NEVER believe they'd participate in violent anarchy, would find themselves among the mindless mobs. For the most part, these are not the conservatives who understand the world as it is today. If doesn't even include "intellectual moderate liberals" who still believe things like "pacifism and communism both work - they've just never been actually tried". The skinhead anarchist, the four-letter word blogger on DailyKOS, and the youth burning cars on the streets of Paris have more in common with the "angry white conservative" the media so loves to call by that phrase. Angry and mostly white, yes; "conservative", meaning those who believe that some government is necessary, no. Conservatives who understand the Armageddon that is so close to us today would be the few clear thinkers should the unthinkable happen. We are now to the point where it would only take one catastrophic horrific event to unleash unstoppable Hell on Earth. Our Second Civil War would be fought with only our enemies the winners as they pick up the pieces of whatever remains afterwards. People like George Soros are doing all they can to bring forth this Final Battle. Why? Can they really believe they would benefit while billions of others suffer? They must believe it or they are mentally insane. Probably some are insane. Or delusional. It's been said there is not one world but, instead, 6 1/2 billion worlds. Different worlds viewed through the eyes and the minds of every person alive today.
The righteousness of the "Politically Correct" brings us closer to this world conflagration every day. It is coming just as sure as the sun rises in the east. As in all such past acts of mob violence, mostly innocent people will die. Except, this time, the violence will be on a level unimaginable to anyone today. It's now just a matter of time.
