A majority of Americans never failed to support the war, even in the immediate aftermath of losing the battle for the second UN resolution (a very real and costly go for the Bush administration, where the US let itself get sandbagged by France for the sake of Tony Blair). True, they made noises about wanting UN support, but they supported the war anyway without it. There was never a single poll that said, 'You didn't get UNSC support? then we don't support the war'

The patriotism that was in evidence after the war started was also functioning before it started, lol.
