A poll reported in today's news (7/2/03) shows that for the first time since Bush began
the Iraq war a majority of Americans doubt his reasons for taking us into war.
This change in public perception should be made as widely known as the
internet can make possible.
Directly below, Readers will find the report as I read it this morning.
=====================================================
"Poll: Majority Believe Bush 'Stretched Truth' (AFP) - For the first time since the
beginning of the war in Iraq, a solid majority of Americans believe the Bush
administration either "stretched the truth" about Iraqi weapons of mass
destruction or told outright lies, according to a new opinion survey. The poll by
the University of Maryland found that 52 percent of respondents said they
believed President George W. Bush and his aides were "stretching the truth,
but not making false statements" about Iraqi president Saddam Hussein's
chemical, biological and nuclear programs.
Another 10 percent said US officials were presenting Congress, the American
public and the international community "evidence they knew was false,"
indicated the survey which was made public Tuesday.
Only 32 percent said they thought the government was being "fully truthful"
about the Iraqi arsenal."
