Again, the American people are way ahead of their leaders:
The CNN poll, conducted April 21-23 by Opinion Research Corporation, found that only 9 percent thought the U.S. mission in Iraq had been accomplished, while another 40 percent believed it would be complete someday.Besides the Bush family, the Cheneys, Rummy and Condi, just who are the 9% that think the mission's been accomplished?
Another 44 percent said the United States would never accomplish its goals in Iraq, where American troops are still battling insurgents three years after the invasion that toppled former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein.
Think Progress looks at the numbers then and now.
