Read the new USA poll below in the CNN article.
Yes, it's true, the usa is led by a group of crazier than God kooks.
But, apparently, we, the people who answer polls are not kooks.
How we get out of this kookery is the sad, but pressing issue.
Can anybody even imagine that the world - not just the citizens of the usa -
is going to be kooked for three more years!!?? Jesus!

Poll: Fewer than half think U.S. will win in Iraq
More than half say country should speed up withdrawal
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- A CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll released Thursday indicated
fewer than half of Americans believe the United States will win the Iraq
war, and 55 percent of those surveyed said it should speed up withdrawal
plans.
Only 21 percent said the United States definitely would win the war in Iraq,
which began when a U.S.-led coalition invaded in 2003 to topple Iraqi leader
Saddam Hussein. Another 22 percent said they thought the United States
probably would win.
Twenty percent of respondents said the United States was capable of winning
in Iraq -- but probably would not. And 34 percent said they considered the
war unwinnable.
The survey of 818 adults was conducted Friday through Sunday and had a
sampling error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.
The results followed others this week that found only 32 percent of those
interviewed supported President Bush's handling of the war, 63 percent
supported a full or partial withdrawal and and 54 percent favored cutting
spending on the conflict to pay for rebuilding the Gulf Coast after
Hurricane Katrina. (Full story)
With a large anti-war demonstration planned outside the White House this
weekend, Bush said Thursday the United States can lose in Iraq only "if we
lose our nerve and abandon the mission."
"Some Americans want us to withdraw our troops so that we can escape the
violence," Bush said. "I recognize their good intentions, but their position
is wrong. Withdrawing our troops would make the world more dangerous and
make America less safe."...
