I've been looking at a bunch of polling data and it looks like the vast majority of Americans have had enough of the Iraq war. The numbers vary a little from one poll to another, but roughly 70% think dubya has thoroughly screwed the pooch. That didn't surprise me, but I couldn't help wondering what the 30% that still support him are thinking. I ventured over to Lucianne to find out. Holy shit! I had forgotten just how bloodthirsty and batshit crazy they are over there. Check out some of these gems from the comments.

I believe the American public will rally behind a plan that looks like a plan. Most of the people have no heart for chaos and the media does its best to spin Iraq as chaotic. Only segments of it are out of control. Large areas of the country are calm.

Large areas of the country are calm? I guess that's technically a true statement. Large areas of uninhabited desert can certainly be described as calm. The areas containing people? Not so much.

Of course the vast, solid majority of Americans support this war, and the dims KNOW IT! They knew it before the election. 64-66% of Americans support the president on the war, and his speeches about it prior to the election were drawing support solidly to him.

That's why the Republicans kicked some serious Democrat butt in that election. No wait, I mean uhh...whuh? These next two are a pretty common theme over there.

Americans want to support the president and the troops. Well, most Americans. I don't think the Dem leaders and big sections of the Dem voter base want anything but failure.


#14, if the democrats are our only chance, then we've got no chance at all. I could say the democrats are cowards, but that to simplistic. There's more than enough evidence for a reasonable American to assume that they prefer defeat, over victory. Why, because they hate capitalism and Christianity more than they hate Islamic facsists. In their warped worldview terrorists represent oppressed third worlders fighting evil global capitalists.

That's right. The Democrats and their supporters want to lose. The party of women's equality and minority rights and gay rights and abortion rights and freedom of (or from) religion wants to surrender to a bunch of religious nut-jobs who believe in exactly none of those ideals because...ummm...well they just do, that's all. Okay, a couple more and I'll stop.

We are winning, and the president is not going to change his stance; we can count on him to stay committed.

Committed. Hee-hee. That one's just too easy.

The Long War is being fought and won, despite the lies of the Enemedia/Defeatocrats. Have courage, groveling Defeatocrats and RINOs.. America can count on President Bush and our fine Troops!

I saw that "enemedia" term several times. I guess the idea is that if all the media would just get on board and start repeating the mantra that we're really winning then somehow we would actually be winning or at least everyone would think so. They're pushing for maximum public ignorance. The 30% still supporting dubya are mushroom people. They want to be kept in the dark and fed bullshit.
