Today is different from six months ago

Six months ago, 43% felt Bush was too eager to go to war with Iraq...well
less than "more than half" as you claimed. Anyway you spin it, your
statement is a complete fabrication.



The Harris Poll® #18, March 26, 2003

Slight Majority of Americans Support Bush Decisions on War With Iraq
Large majorities still believe that Iraq has or is making weapons of mass
destruction
Significant numbers feel president was too eager to go to war

As the nation, which overwhelmingly believes that Iraq has weapons of mass
destruction (81%), moves into its second week of war with Iraq, the latest
Harris Poll finds that just over half of Americans (56%) express support for
President Bush's handling of issues in Iraq over the last few months. Equal
percentages (56%) feel that he's done a positive job in lining up allies who
would support the war.

While comparable numbers (54%) say that Bush was "right" to attack Iraq now,
nearly a third of Americans (31%) feel that Bush should have given Iraq and
United Nations weapons inspectors more time and, a full 43% think the
president was too eager to go to war.
