60% of Americans oppose Iraq war: CNN poll

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Sixty percent of Americans oppose the U.S. war in Iraq and a majority would support a partial withdrawal of troops by year's end, a CNN poll said on Wednesday.

It was the CNN poll's highest number opposing the war since fighting began in March 2003, a figure that has risen steadily since then, according to the Opinion Research Corp. survey conducted last week on behalf of the cable network.


I seen this on CNN and I believe it was 86% of Dem's who are against it with 13% for it.

1. According to Joe, 60% are Fringe Lefties
I guess the "far Left" is the majority then, right?

3. The majority of americans are out of step with mainstream America?
Left is right, up is down, getting our kids killed for political reasons is a damn fine concept. Why the fuck would any "mainstream" American want to give peace a chance? Global warming is nothing but liberal pablum. And the band played on.

2. The pride is dripping off some of bush's base
Those who continue to support the "war" are just too damn proud to admit they supported the monster in two elections. More must die tomorrow so that those who died yesterday did not die in vain; sing the same tune, one year, two years, three years from now.
