Hi Fritz and
everyone...polls...hmmm...can anyone tell me
more about "NewsMax"? Who owns and controls this website? Fritz,
have you asked anyone at NewsMax how this poll was conducted? What are the
demographics of this poll? I see on their homepage as of today,
Sunday, May 7, just after 7pm Central (USA), where they site a poll WITH
HEADLINES that says Fox is the most trusted news source in the U.S., but the
story says we're talking about 11% of the public making it this "popular."
Hey, if only roughly One in Ten Americans are fatheads, we're not doin'
too bad. I wouldn't be surprised if a large percentage of these
11% make up the largest percentage of the "voters" who answered the
NewsMax poll, which would make that "77%" actually an incredibly small
percentage of the U.S. population. Sorry you blame the "ordinary"
U.S. citizen for however our government acts. What's the deal in your
country? Is your government walking in lockstep with the will of the
overwhelming majority of the "ordinary" citizens? What is "ordinary"
anyway???? I'll leave it at that for now. Mike

Fritz,
Have a strong feeling of dejavu and this
time I will save the info in
a special place. Pre Iraq, I saw similar
figures and also some
support on this list. Today it is overwhelming
negative numbers in
support for the Iraq war and approval ratings for
the president.
Maybe I should frame this, for future use.
Talk
about a violent population, 77% in support of military action
and
killing Iranians. In two years we will have 65% in denial and
against
the US engagement in Iran. It will be an even bigger mess
than Iraq,
with attacks all over the world.
