Poll: Iraq Going Badly And Getting Worse
Majority In CBS News Survey Doubt U.S. Can Win; 62 Percent Call War 'A Mistake'

(CBS News) NEW YORK Americans believe the war in Iraq is going badly and getting worse, and think it's time for the U.S. either to change its strategy or start getting out, according to a CBS News poll.

Forty-three percent say the U.S. should keep fighting, but with new tactics, while 50 percent say the U.S. should begin to end its involvement altogether. Only 4 percent say the U.S. should keep fighting as it is doing now.

Just 21 percent approve of President Bush's handling of the war, the lowest number he's ever received, and an 8-point drop from just a month ago. Most of that drop has been among Republicans and conservatives. Three-quarters of Americans disapprove of how the president is handling Iraq.

Opposition to the war is now taking on historic proportions, with 62 percent saying it was "a mistake" to send U.S. troops to Iraq -- slightly more than told a Gallup Poll in 1973 that it was a mistake to send U.S. forces to Vietnam.

4. The word "mistake" implies that it was an earnest decision that turned out to be wrong...

The invasion was a crime in so many ways. They knew what they were getting into, yet they ignored the warnings from experienced generals & analysts. And don't forget how Cheney & Bolton stood over CIA desk analysts to put pressure on them to "find" evidence of WMD. It wasn't a "mistake"; it was a deliberate, calculated decision.
