The previous Bill O'Reilly survey is:
**Q: Does President Bush owe you an explanation about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq?
No 71%
Yes 29%
Total Votes: 26811**
That is so pathetic. Bush repeatedly told us that Saddam had massive quantities of chemical and biological weapons and that he had an active nuclear program. We went to war primarily for this claim. Now that the war is over and we've carefully searched Iraq, we find no evidence to support Bush. Yet, most people in this poll don't want to be bothered with an explanation of how Bush could have been so wrong. Indeed, neocons want to be ignorant (most of them probably think that massive amounts of chemical weapons have been found).

Pathetic is right.
It was also very predictable. Shrub and the Likudniks know that they can get away with this. The know that you can lie to the American people and they won't care so long as gasoline prices are low.
Bread and circuses is the stuff of Empire.
We don't deserve the Republic our Founding Fathers bequethed to us, and thus we will lose it.

My nuts in a thoughtshell. The media has Joe Sixpack and Sally Soccermom in a hate Aye-Rabs frenzy.
