Americans who woke up Tuesday in peace went to bed at night convinced their nation is at war. A USA TODAY/Gallup/CNN Poll taken Tuesday afternoon and evening showed: Eighty-six percent of those surveyed described the terrorist attacks as acts of war against the United States.

How do we know the culprits weren't anti-capitalist eco-socialists?!

Because that bunch is too f@#$ing dumb to pull off something like this. The best they can do is loot Starbucks or something.

I wonder what the 10 percent think today's attacks are, if not a declaration of war?

"This is war. This is no joke here," said Rachel Osensky of Powder Springs, Ga. "People who are brainwashed can go a long way. You can't ignore them."

Amen and pass the ammunition Rachel. These polls show that most Americans have sone clarity about the situation. On BBC America they cited a poll where 91% of the American people believe that the US should retaliate against whoever did this.

10% is slightly less than the socialst, Clinton Kool-Aid drinking core. I predict even that number will go down as the facts become clear.
