13. results here.
With the Iraq Study Group's report now a part of the national debate about the war in Iraq, President Bush is scheduled to talk to the nation tonight about his plans to secure a positive outcome for the United States and for the people of Iraq.
Polls show that fewer than 30 percent of Americans approve of the way Bush is handling the war, and he has not adopted any of the Study Group's recommendations, though he may say he will do so tonight. Observers say he is almost certain to announce an increase in the number of U.S. soldiers and Marines assigned there.

Here is your chance to record your opinion on what should be done about the Iraq war.

17. 3 is poorly worded, too.
Victory is saving US and Iraqi lives by getting the hell out, but I don't think that's quite what they meant.
