Gory Problem for Bush
 

Gore's comments, and the release of the CIA insider's book come as a new poll
shows for the first time that the majority of Americans believe the US-led war
on Iraq was a mistake, according to a USA Today/CNN/Gallup Poll released on
Thursday.

Amid continuing violence in Iraq and questions about the justification for the
war, 54% of the 1,005 Americans polled said it was a mistake to send US troops
into Iraq, compared with 41% who held that view three weeks ago.

The findings mark the first time since Vietnam that a majority of Americans has
called a major deployment of US forces a mistake, USA Today reported on its web
site.
