The lies that persist long beyond the selling of the war.
Makes one ashamed of the American intellect on average.
Christian Voodoo & Snake Oil politics:
A Newsweek poll reveals that 41% of Americans believe that Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein was involved with the planning, financing, or commissioning of the 9/11 attacks. This is a slight increase from a September 2004 poll which showed that 36% believed in the Bush administration’s claims of Iraq’s involvement. These claims formed a cornerstone of the administration’s push to garner public support for the war, which began in the immediate wake of the events of 9/11 (see September 15, 2001-April 6, 2002). Additionally, 20% of respondents believe that the majority of the 9/11 hijackers were Iraqi (when in fact none of them were).http://www.cooperativeresearch.org/context.jsp?item=a062507saddaminvolvement&scale=0#a062507saddaminvolvement
A nation this stupid can not last for long.
Of course i suppose it makes the stealing of elections much easier when almost half the population clings like death's grip to lies, long ago exposed as such.
Humanity is a semi-intelligent species at best.
