1. Clumsy wording. Certainly their population and economy aren't
"growing out of control." We have taken care of that.

Edited on Wed Sep-22-04 11:54 AM by democracy eh
if you want confirmation on how bad it is, read

http://www.antiwar.com/deliso/?articleid=3606

Interview with Scott Taylor previously kidnapped Canadian journalist. Interesting bits, on the Iraqi police working with the resistance, absence of foreign fighters, unification of different ethnic factions by the hatred of the US occupation's heavy handed tactics and radical Islam, the growth of a culture of death... Damn

interesting read,
I can only aspire to have half the fortitude that Scott Taylor has.

this article was cited in LBN but it was locked as the link was to a Blog citing the article. I looked and didn't see if it was reposted.

11. the 20%
maybe the 20% think that Iraq is ALREADY out of control?

Or maybe they are just a bunch of brain-dead Fox "News" watching pro-Bush lemmings!

10. Anyone who answered "no" to that poll
Edited on Wed Sep-22-04 12:54 PM by livinginphotographs
is a complete fucking idiot, not paying attention, or both. (kind of like our president)

And the word "growing" assumes that we ever had it under control.

12. You mean "yes" or "no"
You must have meant no.

And I agree the wording implies a situation that never existed, but that is normal for polls from the cable whores MSNCB and CNN.

13. My bad.
I was too busy beating my head against my desk to read it properly. ;)

Would it be dishonest of me to edit?
