The public has lost confidence in the Bush administration's ability to protect the nation from terrorist attacks, the poll shows, but 61% are still confident it can.How stupid is this shit?

When(if) the price of oil drops you will see more favorable numbers for the administration across the board. The ripple effect of continually higher oil prices is going to devastate this economy and I sense that right now less disposable income is being manifest in an uneasiness being felt around the country.

Probably another poll where most of the voters surveyed voted for Kerry... USA today can take its polls and stuff 'em up Kerry's flip flops.

Yes, that's just what I was thinking. What a stupid, stupid sentence! Good Lord, what was this, some kind of push poll?
People are trying to kill us and we worry about how we treat them? What madness is this?
Unemployment stands at approximately 5% which, since the end of WW2, is considered to be full employment.
Nearly 70% of America lives in a privately owned home - a record high not only for the US but also FOR THE WHOLE WORLD.
Are we that addled that we cannot see the good because there is always some bad?
Good Lord Almighty, we are turning into a nation of whiners and sissies.

Yet another view is coming out from the business community and state governments, who are collecting land falls because of the current surge of prosperity.
Why the disconnect - "news organizations don't care to report good news, they'd rather take polls from anyone sitting in his/her living room watching the boob tube/playing video games/doing drugs or getting over last night's drunk, and shazaam - everyone is in a funk and it's W's fault. Now there is some "real" news we can print.

Fewer Americans fear a terrorist attack on the USA in the next several weeks than at any time since 9/11, a new USA TODAY/CNN/Gallup Poll shows.Ignorance is bliss.

To: zarf
If I read MacPaper every day I'd be in a funk too.
Happily, I hang out on FR so I'm happy as a freakin' clam!

Typical, brought to you by the same idiots(USAToday)that invited Mikey Moore to the RNC.
It's Bush's fault.
