Poll cats.

Biased pollster John Zogby has some post-speech numbers out on George W. Bush. Read the results if this sort of thing even concerns or interests you (daily vacillations of public opinion typically don't do it for me), but be sure to note an interesting question posed by Zogby and an interesting answer by respondents:

In a sign of the continuing partisan division of the nation, more than two-in-five (42%) voters say that, if it is found that President Bush did not tell the truth about his reasons for going to war with Iraq, Congress should hold him accountable through impeachment.

First of all, why is this question even being asked? Where is there any credible evidence that the president lied? Second, if we're just dealing in the world of hypotheticals why would only 42% of the public favor impeachment? I mean, I supported Bush's Iraq policy but if it were to be proven that the country was intentionally mislead into sending its sons and daughters to war, I would be in favor of stringing Bush up from the nearest tree, not just impeaching him. That's among the highest crimes a president could commit, in my opinion.

I guess more than anything, the poll result suggests a public that is largely unreflective on political issues. The unexamined life isn't worth living, people.
