How odd............... to even find the need to listen to numbers from questionable polls whose results are from the responses of ill-informed and propagandized citizens. What a joke. For God's sake, how many polls was anyone concerned over during WWII?

The old Dem./liberal/socialist media is America's most ruthless, relentless, and destructive enemy.
The President should have made the connection between the FIRST WTC bombing and Iraq. Repeated the fact that Iraq was on the list of Terrorist sponsoring nations for years. And gone on to say...." So was Syria, which is why we started bombing them 5 minutes ago."
The libs and Dems have been imagining that Bush said Iraq was directly responsible for 9/11. They've been dreaming it for so long, they think the echo in their head is real.
Case in point

GWB's got chutzpah, you gotta give him that.
In the piece, Baath Party writer Naeem Abd Muhalhal predicted that bin Laden would attack the US “with the seriousness of the Bedouin of the desert about the way he will try to bomb the Pentagon after he destroys the White House.”
The same state-approved column also insisted that bin Laden “will strike America on the arm that is already hurting,” and that the US “will curse the memory of Frank Sinatra every time he hears his songs” – an apparent reference to the Sinatra classic, “New York, New York”. (Link below)

Saddam and Bin Laden were the Stalin / Trotsky of terrorism. It doesn't matter if they eventually fell out, they bred the filth together and take responsibility [or 'credit', as they'd see it] for all its actions.
