I have great disdain for newspapers and more for pollsters. May I point out that this article we are reviewing is a poll reported in a newspaper.

One question I have is in reference to misperception #2. Didn't the Bushites tell us (I'm asking-I'm not positive) that there was a link between Hussein and al Queda terrists? If so, the problem on that particular is not that the population is misled by the television media, or unable to comprehend what they have been properly told by the media, but is instead that they were lied to, causing confusion.

If the President says there is a link between Hussein and Al Queda, and Fox reports that the President says there is a link between Hussein and Al Queda, and then some people believe there is a link between Hussein and al Queda, is the proper conclusion that the current generation of yanks is a population of morons? I don't think it follows.
