Iraq Debate Splits Democrats; Public Unworried
59 minutes ago
By John Whitesides, Political Correspondent

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The growing chorus of questions about whether the United States manipulated Iraqi weapons evidence has rekindled Democratic divisions over the war but so far inflicted little political damage on President Bush (news - web sites).

While many Democrats on Capitol Hill and some 2004 Democratic presidential hopefuls have questioned the administration's justification for war and pushed for a full inquiry, other Democratic contenders have refused to join in.

Polls, meanwhile, show a majority of the public is unconcerned. A recent CNN/Gallup/USA Today poll found 56 percent of Americans believe the conflict was justified even without evidence of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction.

And in a Fox News poll, 69 percent believed the war was right even if tangible signs of chemical, nuclear or biological weapons are never found in Iraq (news - web sites).
