Poll: Most Americans Think Iraq War Not Worth Fighting (Poll stays, troll goes)

Washington Post ^ | 12/20/2004 | Christopher Muste

[Jeb for Pres 2008]

The survey found that 56 percent of the country now believes that the cost of the conflict in Iraq outweighs the benefits, while 42 percent disagreed. It marked the first time since the war began that a clear majority of Americans have judged the war to have been a mistake.

Usless tripe spewed by a leftist rag.

I liked the reference Bush made to the poll we had on Nov 2. Pretty much says it all.

Your (broken) link is a barf alert.

Lincoln's war was unpopular in the early going. He was very worried the Copperheads, the Northern Democrats, would win in 1864, even after the twin victories at Gettysburg and Vicksburg in July 1863. The fall of Atlanta seems to have cemented the belief in a majority that Lincoln was on the path to victory.

The problem with the MSM today is they won't call a victory a victory, but tell the people its a defeat.

Election results say otherwise.

Man! They zotted him already. I thought they were supposed to be tortured to death, not put down humanely!

[CedarDave]

Whoa! Wait a minute here. Why are the mods suspending the poster and zotting the thread? It's a legitimate article (I checked) and it seems he followed the rules. What gives, anyway?

Not his first ID here.

Man! They zotted him already.

Yeah, but why? I've occasionally posted negative articles from the MSM and he followed the rules. What have I missed???

[finnman69]

Imagine that, and Bush is still President

Waaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ShadowDancer]

Okay, then if I post this it will stay?

[superskunk]

Should have tortured the little piggy first.

[CedarDave]

Thanks for the explanation. He seemed legit.

It's a good thing. The kittens are tired.

This is bad news, we must pull out of Iraq and invite Bin Laden to take over.

[superskunk]

Dead link, dude. Don't tell me they pulled a story in 5 minutes.

[PilloryHillary]

ZOT

Not even a scap left?

Its all how you ask the question. How many truly understand what the "benefits" are? We are talking about changing the world for the better and it will take many years, Its about the future, not todays cost but the security of all our tommorrows. Was the benefit of the Soviet Union collapse worth the cost of the cold war?

The Washington Post links (both of them) work fine for me. However, 506trooper's link is bad.
