If he really said this, then it's a preposterous lie. There is no such thing as a 98% response on any poll. If the question was "Do you want steel spikes driven into your head?" the "No" response would probably come in at about 95%, tops.
He said it.
Absolutely right. If anyone says 98% of respondents want such and such, only a fool would consider the poll valid.
Bah. Don't mean nothin'. Some lefty einstein probably went and asked a couple hundred Iraqi's if they'd prefer to have the American Army occupy Iraq indefinitely, or go home at some point.
Amazing! The Iraqis want us out!
