This chart of the Gallup Poll is making the rounds and it's quite amazing. By a margin of 63 to 36 — not far from two-to-one — Americans think our country made a mistake sending troops to Iraq in the first place. It started out with a three-to-one ratio in the other direction. No "current" war has ever been so unpopular in this country.
The question it all raises for me is about how many people think it was not a mistake to send those troops initially but believe the war effort has been so badly bungled that we need to cut our losses and get out. And how many of those people are in the 63%?
