Americans Mistrust Their Federal Government?
On the heels of the Padilla trial juror selection where a substantial number of perspective jurors blame the president fot the 9/11 attacks or are not sure who is responsible, there is this Rasussen poll entitled 22% Believe Bush Knew About 9/11 Attacks in Advance
The mistrust of government lsrgely instigated by leftist groups over the ages is paying big dividends for the hate mongers. Of course, Bush bashing has made a big contribution to this mistrust since I don’t believe that this would be the poll result if the oresident had been a Democrat at the time of the attack. As usual, the media has been a major accomplice in the sowing of mistrust as has the liberal indoctrination in our schools.Democrats in America are evenly divided on the question of whether George W. Bush knew about the 9/11 terrorist attacks in advance. Thirty-five percent (35%) of Democrats believe he did know, 39% say he did not know, and 26% are not sure.
Republicans reject that view and, by a 7-to-1 margin, say the President did not know in advance about the attacks. Among those not affiliated with either major party, 18% believe the President knew and 57% take the opposite view.
Overall, 22% of all voters believe the President knew about the attacks in advance. A slightly larger number, 29%, believe the CIA knew about the attacks in advance. White Americans are less likely than others to believe that either the President or the CIA knew about the attacks in advance. Young Americans are more likely than their elders to believe the President or the CIA knew about the attacks in advance.
