Fox News Poll: Americans Say Iraq War Worth It | |||
2010-09-06 | |||
A little over one-third of voters (35 percent) take the opposite view -- that the U.S. "did the wrong thing" by becoming involved militarily in Iraq. From a partisan perspective, there is still division -- as 54 percent of Democrats think the U.S. did the wrong thing in Iraq, while only 14 percent of Republicans feel the same way. A slim majority of independents (52 percent) think the U.S. did the right thing in Iraq.
When the scope is widened to broader security concerns, about six in 10 voters (58 percent) agree the action made the United States and the world safer. Again, more than one-third (37 percent) takes the opposing view. If Iraq is considered a success, who deserves the credit? Voters are pretty clear, as a 54-percent majority names former President George W. Bush as the person who should be acknowledged as most responsible for the success in Iraq. Some 19 percent think President Obama deserves the most credit. Some 14 percent volunteer the view that neither of the presidents, but instead the Iraqi people are most deserving of this accolade. Interestingly, Democrats are evenly divided on this question (34 percent Bush, 34 percent Obama).

IOW, CLERIC AL-FUTUH > ISLAM + RADIC ISLAM MUST BE STRONG, DISCIPLINED, + MOST OF ALL PATIENT TO ACHIEVE THE FINAL VICTORY. Again, MUSLIM MIL HISTORY = fight "LONG WARS" lasting many Years, Decades, + Generations. AND * TOPIX/WORLD NEWS > VARIOUS > OBAMA: NO VICTORY LAP IN IRAQ, + OBAMA RATINGS IN DECLINE.

#3 I just had a nasty thought. What if the DoJ let the states slide on trying to get the soldiers ballots because they hope it will give the Demirats an edge in the next election? It would be the perfect way to eliminate what I would guess to be the majority against their stupidity, and BO. |

#1 "If Iraq is considered a success, who deserves the credit?" The U.S. Military and it's allies. Bush deserves credit for staying the course. I may disagree w/him on a plethora of issues but W will always be a profile in courage to me wrt not wet-fingering the political winds. Plus, I do think he's a genuinely good guy w/enough humility not to second guess the current clown-in-chief. Too bad that tool Jimmah Carter doesn't have half the class W does. 19% for Obama? Retards. The idiots that cancel out our votes. How'd that being against the surge thingy work out of you wonder boy? Obama couldn't lead a fire team in silent prayer. If every world leader was in jail ole' Barry Sotero would be Putin's cell-block tootsie roll. |
