The responses are stupid! It assumes that the President made a mistake in claiming there were WMD in Iraq. How about a third option like "Who cares? That murdering despot is out of power and his people are free!" ?

That is EXACTLY what Cliff May told O'Reilly.

Bill responded by telling Cliff that those were "right wing talking points"

For some reason, this issue has really bugged O'Reilly since the start of the invasion. He mentions it every time the Iraq war is brought up.

I voted "No", of course, since I believe Pres. Bush acted on the best information he had. And I suspect that 99 out of 100 Americans would reply "Who cares?"

...poll assumes Bush made a mistake.....

I thought the exact same thing when I heard O'Reilly talk about the poll. And, I will email him about this.
How about David Kay saying they were working on ricin right up 'til the war began. RICIN ! Last I heard this could kill quite a few people. Sometimes O'Reilly bugs me. I like John Gibson and Neil Cavuto. They wear their patriotism on their sleeve and they're not ashamed to do so. They don't cave to try to be 'politically correct'.

Very true. O'Reilly is trying to turn this into a Bush problem instead of a CIA problem. Bush used the same intel as Clinton and Congress and they all believed there were WMD. The CIA was castrated by the liberals after Watergate (Church Commission) and they've been trying to destroy it ever since. Lack of humint assets on the ground with capability in local languages and cultures is the major weak spot.
