60% of Americans are against the war

Sixty percent of Americans oppose Iraq war: poll - Yahoo! News Sixty percent of Americans oppose Iraq war: poll Wed Aug 9, 8:25 AM ET Sixty percent of Americans oppose the U.S. war in Iraq and a majority would support a partial withdrawal of troops by year's end, a CNN poll said on Wednesday. It was the CNN poll's highest number opposing the war since fighting began in March 2003, a figure that has risen steadily since then, according to the Opinion Research Corp. survey conducted last week on behalf of the cable network. The poll showed 36 percent of respondents said they were in favor of the war -- half the peak 72 percent who supported the war as it began, said the poll of 1,047 Americans. The telephone survey, which had an error margin of 3 percentage points, showed 61 percent believed at least some U.S. troops should be withdrawn from Iraq by the end of 2006. Voter anger over the Iraq war, plagued by insurgent and sectarian violence with a daily civilian death toll, was cited in the Connecticut Democratic primary defeat Tuesday of U.S. Sen. Joseph Lieberman (news, bio, voting record), who strongly backed President George W. Bush's war effort. Hey Republicans, Conservatives and chickenhawks is 60% of Americans favor cutting and running? What's going in Iraq is a daily blood bath, the country is in civil war and the Shi majority is joining with the shi majority in Iran so if the smirk attack Iran what you think the Shi majority in Iraq is going to do to those American soliders stuck in Iraq? It's time to get our guys far away from that mess before we lose more people for nothing.
