CNN Poll: Six In Ten Want U.S. Troops Out Of Iraq Now Or Within A Year.

    Another poll, this one done by CNN, finds that 46% of Americans believe that the United States can't win in Iraq. 37% think that the U.S. can win and 29% says that things are going well in Iraq, an all time low.

   This is the first time in four years that the majority of Americans have said that we cannot win this war.

Nearly six in 10 of those polled want to see U.S. troops leave Iraq either immediately or within a year, and more would rather have Congress running U.S. policy in the conflict than President Bush.

The CNN poll was conducted Friday through Sunday by Opinion Research Corp. Pollsters interviewed 1,027 adults for the survey, which had a sampling error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.

Though support for Bush's decision to dispatch additional troops to Iraq grew to 37 percent -- up 5 percent from a mid-January poll -- 52 percent say Congress should block funding for the new deployment.

   I sure hope that many of our people in Congress see this poll since they seem to always come up with the " Americans do not want the funding cut or stopped " excuse for the reason that they do not try this tact.
