Excuse me while I snicker behind the backs of my bleeding hear liberal co-workers who continue to insist that America doesn't back this war.

2.

Overall, do you support or oppose this policy? Now, mention that giving more time for inspection may make the United States miss the meteorological window for this operation, and I bet these numbers would go even higher.

60% is a Hugh number given the biased news who show only the anti-war protestors and not the Pro-Bush rallies. let's remember, there was 15% of the country who didn't want to attack Japan after Pearl Harbor. I'd say 60 % is about as high a number as anyone could get and signals SUPPORT for Bush and SUPPORT for taking on Iraq.
