I don't. Newsweek is still bashing its head against the hate-Bush wall.

Things will improve significantly when Walmart starts opening stores. Everybody loves to shop and find good deals. Even Sunni's.

Shoot, it was in part commission by ABC News, I wonder how they will explain it to their stockholders if they don't use it?

I personally cannot believe this is actually printed in the BBC, complete with a picture of an Iraqi child giving a US soldier the thumbs up. An accident maybe? Or a deliberate policy to only show the good news on weekends, like Fox?

Iraqi's optimism for the future of their country is now a higher percentage than Americans'. Which goes to show how our media is obsessed with finding the dark cloud in anything that is positive. However, just like good socialists, our media is determined to dash Iraq's hopes so they can share our misery.

And it's a great example to whiny limp liberals that America isn't exactly going down the tubes, even if Hollywood celebrities tell them it is.

Just because it is "new" to the lamebrained press does not mean it is new to the Iraqi people.

Bump. Can't believe this came from the BBC. They must have hated running this story...

You know it was hard for the BBC to report this.

If its so-called "journalists" were not such an untrustworthy bunch of propaganda con-artists and if they had not nosedived a once highly respected and trusted news organization into a bad joke propaganda machine...you could almost feel sorry for them.

The BBC News website's World Affairs correspondent, Paul Reynolds, says the survey shows a degree of optimism at variance with the usual depiction of the country as one in total chaos.

The findings are more in line with the kind of arguments currently being deployed by US President George W Bush, he says.

Bet it hurts the Beeb to say this LOL
