This is what happens when you lie about reasons for invading a country, screw it up even more because you didn't plan and then smear critics. Time to make some changes, folks or else it's more of the same.
Doubts about the war on terrorism are growing. Most people worry that the cost in blood and money may be too high, and they don't think al-Qaida kingpin Osama bin Laden will ever be caught, an AP-Ipsos poll found.And more bad news for the administration and the GOP:Five years after the attacks of Sept. 11, fully one-third of Americans think the terrorists may be winning, the poll suggests. Worries fed by the war in Iraq have spilled over into the broader campaign against terrorists who directly target the U.S.
Half in the poll question whether the costs of the anti-terror campaign are too great, and even more admit that thought has crossed their mind.
The AP-Ipsos telephone polling of about 1,000 people found:
- Less than half, 46 percent, are confident that bin Laden will ever be caught down from 67 percent in December 2003.
- More than four in 10, 43 percent, say they're embarrassed by the U.S. image overseas.
