CBS Poll: 76% Say War's Going Badly Record Number In CBS/NYT Survey Say Getting Involved In Iraq Was A Mistake Complete Poll Results: President, Congress And The War in Iraq CBS News Interactive: Bush's Approval Ratings

(CBS News) NEW YORK As President Bush and Congress hammer out an Iraq war funding bill, a CBS News/New York Times poll shows the number of Americans who say the war is going badly has reached a new high, rising 10 percent this month to 76 percent.

Nearly half of all Americans (47 percent) say the war is going very badly, while just 20 percent say the recent U.S. troop increase is making a positive difference.

Even a majority of Republicans, 52 percent, now say the war is going at least somewhat badly – a 16-point increase from the middle of April. Nine in 10 Democrats and eight in 10 Independents agree.

HOW IS THE WAR GOING?

Now • Well: 23% • Badly: 76%

4/2007 • Well: 31% • Badly: 66%

76% Say War’s Going Badly because they watch CBS, and don’t know any better. All this shows is CBS’ bias.

Of course those people are going to overwhelmingly vote that the war is going badly. It is what SeeBS has been telling them since the beginning.

Repeat a lie enough times and people will take it for the truth.

I would say that 76% would agree that things are going badly at CBS.

“Yeah, who did they poll? The House of Representatives ??”

Actually they polled people who formerly watched Katie Couric anchor the evening news. They misunderstood the question.

All this poll shows is exactly how ignorant the public is of the situation in Iraq. It's a measure of how successful the enemedia have been in shaping how our efforts are perceived.

We are doing badly in the war on only one front--the propaganda front--where we are losing badly.
