Editorial: Denial/The truth about Iraq hurts
by Star Tribune, Minneapolis

A new poll on Iraq from the University of Maryland has yielded amazing results. It found that 72 percent of those who support President Bush still believe Iraq had weapons of mass destruction or a major program for developing them. Further, "75 percent of Bush supporters continue to believe that Iraq was providing substantial support to Al-Qaida, and 63 percent believe that clear evidence of this support has been found."
