[Peace-discuss] McClatchy: public opposed to more troops in Afg., esp. women, lower-income

[Morton K. Brussel]

So what does this mean?
That the more knowledge one has, or that the more reading one does,  
the more one supports the government's policies?
(The numbers are not that significant in any case—e.g., 48% vs 44%.  
With a 3% estimated error?)

The poll may be good ammunition for those wanting "our" withdrawal  
from SE Asia, but it will be subject to different conclusions.
