consider themselves Evangelical Christians. What does that tell us about the War, George Bush, and America.
Thanks=)

I am just asking a question about what this means to you. I am not injecting very much information and would love to hear what you think.
I would also like to say to the woman (sorry, I don't know your name) that said you don't have to be Christian to support this war. I have honestly never met anyone who was not a Christian that supported the war or our president...you may see it differently in your world, but that's what it's like around here...of course 80% of Americans consider themselves Christian, but I know many non-Christians and none of them support this war.
And to the gentlemen who stated that 70% of the ones that are left had at one time supported the war, I beg to differ. There are many who did not support the war, even though the majority of Americans thought that Iraq was involved in 9-11 there are some who actually recieved their news from other places other then American channels=)

Well, 90% of AMerica have jobs. Economy has been growing steadily since 2003.
And war like the IRaq war is about stimulating the economy.
If you don't believe that the war started in IRaq for the sake of using old bombs, such that new ones to be made, to rebuilding iraq stimulates the AMerican economy. It is GOV't spending that injects new money into the economy. This is called democracy. SPEND more money. Consumerism/ Democracy. Not to mention, the rewards of war is far more greater than the actual cost of the war. (Multiplier effect)
Not to mention, America picked a target that can repay some of the war effort and rebuilding via Oil. Securing oil in Iraq, will certainly benefit americans to lower oil prices.
Or at least a continuation of record high OIL PROFITS by the big AMerican Oil refining giants?
There is a reason why the war is still going on. We just don't see it! Nor really understand it. But, rest assure, the one fundamental reason for war, is PROFIT! and there is plenty of evidence to show there is profit being made.

I have to laugh at the folks who believe that supporting our President, fighting terrorism and keeping our country safe, equates to Christianity.
One doesn't have to be a Christian to support our President.

It means the supporting 30% are either fake Christians (most likely) or just neo-Nazis in disguide.

There is the thought among fundamentalists that we need to have war in the Middle East in order to bring on Armageddon and the return of Christ. It is frightening to think that these extremists have gotten control of our foreign policy. They are no better than the maniacal Islamics.

Is the remainder the same 70% that thought Iraq was connected to 9/11 about three years ago?
The American public as a whole isn't exactly a collection of rocket scientists. Their opinions seem to sway with whatever talk show they last saw.

If you're trying to use stats, it doesn't say diddly.
If you are using rhetoric, evil Christians?
