Roll Call magazine's Karlyn Bowman, March 21, 2002 reported that 72 percent of Americans believed Democrats would leak war information if given access to it.

At that time, Democrats in Congress were clamoring for the Bush White House to be more forthcoming about the direction of the war on terrorism, but the public wasn't upset by the administration's actions.

Roll call reported, " When told by Opinion Dynamics-Fox News interviewers that 'Some Democrats on Capitol Hill have been complaining that President Bush is not giving them enough information about future plans for the war on terrorism,' 33 percent in the mid-March poll said Bush should share more information with Congressional Democrats, but 57 percent said he should keep his plans confidential. "

In response to a follow-up question, Roll Call said 16 percent said if more information were given, Democrats on Capitol Hill would keep it confidential, but 72 percent believed it would be leaked to the press.
