From The "Americans Are Stupid" File
From USATODAY/CNN/Gallup:
"• For the first time, a majority of Americans, 51%, say the Bush administration deliberately misled the public about whether Iraq had weapons of mass destruction — the central justification given for invading. The administration's credibility on the issue has been steadily eroding since 2003 after stores of the weapons weren't found.
• By 58%-37%, a majority say the United States won't be able to establish a stable democratic government in Iraq, similar to the results when the question was asked in April 2004.
• About one-third, 32%, say the United States can't win the war in Iraq. Another 21% say the United States could win the war, but they don't think it will. Just 43% predict a victory.
Still, on the question designed to test fundamental attitudes toward the war — was it a mistake to send U.S. troops? — the public's view has rebounded. By 53%-46%, those surveyed say it wasn't a mistake, the strongest support for the war since just after the Iraqi elections in January."
Okay, let me get this straight - a majority of Americans believe Bush misled us into a war that we either can't or won't win, yet a majority of Americans also say it wasn't a mistake to start the war in the first place.
Who are these fucking people? How stupid are they? You mean to say someone conned you into something you can't win and you still think the con was a good idea?
Jesus fucking Christ, no wonder Bush was able to bamboozle the public in two elections. Americans are possibly the dumbest fucking people on the face of the earth. Maybe if people stopped watching so much fucking "reality" televison and started to read something other than USA Today, they wouldn't be so easily manipulated by Bush, Cheney, Rove and the rest of the Republican apparatchiks!
