America’s Values on full display: We am damn fugly

After reading this poll, several conclusions can be made, but the first thing I’d like to know is the one question Zogby failed to ask: Which candidate do you trust to avoid starting another war unless evidence is prevented that the target country poses an imminent threat to our nation?

From the answers gleaned though, only three explanations exist for this pro-war fervor among 52%:

a) they are wet-their-pants scared of any nation that has a leader who threatens to defend itself from an attack by our aggressor president. And/or,

b) they believe our aggressor president has more invisible evidence about non-existing nuclear weapons, even though the UN inspectors have checked things out and concluded that Iran couldn’t build a nuke for at least 5 years, and has also concluded there’s no proof Iran wants to. And if they believe our president still, they are irreparably and shockingly stupid enough to fall for anything any liar tells them. Or,

c) the majority in our nation are criminals, a danger to every other nation.

I can’t determine which of these options is correct, but I also can’t think of any other explanation for 52% to think there’s a need to prevent Iran from doing something that we have no evidence they’re doing. Whichever option’s correct, it’s terribly disheartening.
