There have been a number of recent polls purporting to show that as crazy as rank-and-file Republicans may be on the place of President Obama’s birth or whether his coming was predicted in the Book of Revelation that a lot of Democrats are pretty far out there on the issue of trutherism. The problem, though, has been that the poll questions have all been too vague or poorly worded to get at what people are actually saying.
There is after all a world of difference between saying that the Bush administration had enough information about a pending attack that they should have done something to stop it and saying that the Bush administration knew about the attacks and intentionally let them happen in order to get an excuse to go to war in Iraq.
But this latest poll finally gets the question tightly worded enough to get at just what people are saying. And the number of Dems who believe the latter is pretty high.
