re: It's Pretty Hard To Miss The Posituve

"50% of the invaded people say the war was right versus almost half as much wrong."

That only half, and not a majority of the folks we supposedly 'liberated from tyranny' and 'set free' think we are in the right is NOT a good thing, this is a real problem. If you think I have blinders on, think again!

"Only 13% want an immediate departure and 56% believe we should stay a year or more. "

Another, just as valid read of the numbers says: "57% want us gone by the time a year is up"

"29% to 9% favoring American rule versus Saddam. Similar situation to above."

this glosses over that 53% would not choose us over saddam.

Look, arguments from polls ARE stupid (and yes, Tom, take not of me saying this again), but you HAVE TO BE NUTS to thin k this is a positive and encouraging result in a so-called 'war of liberation'.
