I have my head stuck so far into DU & other LW sources of information that

I know I cannot in any way make a reasonable appraisal of public sentiment. I assume that a lot of you are much better plugged-in to "the masses" than I am, so I turn to you for a reading of what people are thinking.

How much sentiment is there in favor of impeachment? Last poll I saw said something like 50% would support impeachment if the reasons for the war turned out invalid. That, of course, has happened--but does the public know they were lied to? Did that percentage "stick" after they actually found out the bitter truth?

1. I would agree with the fifty percent figure

I think many more are persuadable. The problem is, as it has always been, the media. Not enough people are informed. Or they are not informed strongly enough or often enough. LOL...great thread title. I feel that way sometimes, too.:rofl:

2. I'm guessing it's regional

It's pretty high here in Oregon, even rural Oregon. But then, we don't run around telling each other to "have a blessed day" either, to which I've been informed is very weird of us. So I'm guessing other regions might have a different view on impeachment too.
