Do you believe President Bush misled the nation in order to go to war with Iraq?

That's what he did, right?

He lied. He lied his overrich, pampered ass off. Some of us knew he was lying in real time, and we said as much to the media outlets. But they were too busy slavering over the prospect of juicy pictures of shock and awe and the bonanza that would follow the boost in viewership when the invasion was launched.

Now, NBC and the rest are trying to be shocked, shocked! that the president would "mislead" the country in furtherance of starting a war. Filthy, bloody, cocksuckers. I hope they rot in particularly noxious corner of Hell.

mislead..what a crock of shit..the media is just a propaganda tool for the bush administration...we must also take back our media...

Somehow, I doubt it.

If 94% of the population thinks Bush lied (excuse me, "misled") to build up his case for war, if they continue to catapult the propaganda in that regard everyone will know THEY are lying too. Of course some of us have known it for a long time, but at 94% they can't afford that kind of wholesale loss of credibility. My guess is they'll try to do an about-face...which won't be very convincing.

94% Yes.

WTF:wtf:

mule fuckers.

Not a doubt in my mind.

who are enjoying their chocolate-iced shit cake. If Bush says it's good, then it's GOOD!

*Edit to add: It is indeed the media, stupid.

disrespects anuses.

He flat out lied.

Facts don't matter to idiots.

Isn't it blatantly apparent now?

I'd like to shove a tinfoil hat up the ass of every jerk who called me a conspiracy theorist on this one! Stupid bastards.

NEXT POLL QUESTION: WOULD YOU SUPPORT A MOTION FOR IMPEACHMENT OF PRESIDENT BUSH?

done and kick

2300+ U.S. servicemen and women and scores of thousands of Iraqis. Lives wrecked? We won't know for years.
Why doesn't someone run with the permanent bases story (the huge bases being built in Iraq: ostensibly to house our permanent military presence there)? You'd think that with so many of the people finally figuring out what happened before the war they would react very badly to hear of Administration plans for "after" the war.

because he knew the truth was not going to do it and he wanted war.

Straight forward 4 letter word. LIED!

It's gotten so bad I can't even copy his name.
Edited to remove undeserved title of respect and to replace name with unoffensive asterisk.

94% Yes.
5.8% No.

Given there is no 3rd option, what happened to the other 0.2%?

I think MSNBC knows you came from DU.

Google **MSNBC misled poll** and you'll get there.

mislead |mis?l?d| verb ( past and past part. -led )
cause (someone) to have a wrong idea or impression about someone or something :
the government misled the public about the road's environmental impact.


THE RIGHT WORD

If your spouse asks you whether you remembered to mail the tax forms and you say “Yes,” even though you know they're still sitting on the passenger seat of your car, you're telling a lie, which is a deliberately false statement.

If you launch into a lengthy explanation of the day's frustrations and setbacks, the correct word would be prevaricate, which is to quibble, dodge the point, or confuse the issue so as to avoid telling the truth

.If you tell your spouse that you would have mailed the taxes, but then you started thinking about an important deduction you might be entitled to take and decided it would be unwise to mail them without looking into it, you're rationalizing,
which is to come up with reasons that put your own behavior in the most favorable possible light.

If you say that there was an accident in front of the post office that prevented you from finding a parking space and there really wasn't,
fabricate is the correct verb, meaning that you've invented a false story or excuse without the harsh connotations of lie
(: she fabricated an elaborate story about how they got lost on their way home).

Equivocate implies saying one thing and meaning another; it usually suggests the use of words that have more than one meaning, or whose ambiguity may be misleading. For example, if your spouse says, “Did you take care of the taxes today?” you might equivocate by saying “Yes,” you took care of them—meaning that you finished completing the forms and sealing them in the envelope,
but that you didn't actually get them to the post office.

To fib is to tell a falsehood about something unimportant;
it is often used as a euphemism for lie (: a child who fibs about eating his vegetables).

i have seen like 60-40 and stuff, but NEVER 95-5. Even on an unscientific poll, that is a stark contrast.

IMPEACH?

Bwwwaaaaa!!!

is that they were doing it for the public good because they wanted to dispel the notion that they misled the country about Iraq. :rofl:

Man, that defense is gonna go over about as well as pork chops at a Hassidic wedding.

instead of misled

This is really remarkable. What other question could produce such a lopsided result? Do you like pizza? Is murder bad?

How the hell did it take 3 years for much of the nation to get to this point when I knew six months before the war started that we were being bullshitted?? I'm not that much smarter than the average person. Or if I'm am surely I'm not that much smarter than your average Senator or journalist?

Oh, well.

Poor little pinheads. They haven't noticed yet that half their members are melting away, trying to pretend they never voted for the moron.

BUt as long as the Repugs are in power, that man isn't going anywhere. :mad:

This is encouraging even for the hopeless cynics.

Are they trying to show how far they'll support Bushco (while demonstrating a lack of math skills)?

less than 5000 people on that poll still think he went into Iraq honestly.

on edit 77,700+ think he's a liar.

Indeed we've been "betrayed, mislead, deluded, duped, hoodwinked, bamboozled and double-crossed" ie LIED to by the pResident of the United States.

Interesting turn around Kat, thanks for posting. :hi:
