re: Laugh it up, furball
"It's a simple fact that over 70% of Americans believe, incorrectly and without the slightest shred of real reason, that Saddam Hussein was directly connected to the attacks of September 11th. Why? Where did such a wrong-headed notion come from?"
Where? It's freaking obvious. Haven't you been reading the liberal media- even the "ultra- conservative" Fox, for that matter. They keep on saying things like "Bush has so far failed to find evidence of the connection of Saddam and 911".
70% seems like around the number of people that don't believe the media. So if media is saying it isn't so, therefore then it must be true. Simple.
