Yes, but those would be yours. Nobody who watches Fox thinks Iraq attacked us on 9-11. I have never, ever heard any such thing on there or elsewhere from people who watch. However, I have heard, and believe, that the war in Iraq is vital to taking it to the terrorists on their own turf, part of the broader war on terror which is global, and a vital part of defeating the people who did attack us on 9-11, who are connected in Iraq and all over the world. There is ample evidence to support that and if you don't believe it you are not living in reality.
Really,

Check this out......
A study by the Program on International Policy Attitudes and a polling firm called Knowledge Networks found that heavy Fox viewers were the least well-informed of all news consumers. Fully 45 percent of Fox viewers believed that the US had found ties between Saddam Hussein and Al Qaeda, had unearthed weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, and that the war was supported by most people in other countries. Among those who relied on CBS News, the figure was 15 percent; for PBS and NPR, it was just four percent.

BTW, there were no terrorists in Iraq, until we gave birth to them by invading. We should be looking for the real attacker, Bin Laden. Then imprison the next most dangerous person on earth Governor BUSH!

FOX, FAIR AND BALANCED, yeah sure......
Clearly you don't think rape rooms and gassing innocent civilians to be a terrorist act... [|)]

And, the study could not have interviewed sufficient Fox viewers to conclude "fully 45%" of viewers... That is an intellectually dishonest method for attempting to build one's case. Why doesn't the rest of mainstream liberal media quote studies by PIPA? And don't tell me it's because liberal media are truly conservatives in disguise. I believe that as much as I believe John Kerry is a Hero of the Viet Nam era though he says most of his platoon mates are war criminals.
