The left has no credibility on these issues, IMO.

Your hate for the left is obvious - but you are twisting facts to justify your own opinion.

Condi in testimony virtually said that if Bush didn't know about 9-11 coming he should have or easily could have. Don't you remember when one of those questioning her asked what the name of the report was? Now you can fault democrats for believing what Rice said - but to go from there to thinking that democrats hate America is not only silly, but for me brings a lack of credibility to your arguments. The left doesn't hate America - they might and likely do hate Bush - but Bush is no more America than Clinton is.

Therefore, 60% of democrats have come to think it possible that Bush was involved in a conspiracy to attack our own country.

You've stretched that "therefore" well beyond reason. There is a range of positions that would evoke a "yes" answer to that question. Sure, some may think it was a deliberate plot by the administration. But you could also believe that the CIA had picked up some vague chatter about a possible attack somewhere, sometime, and answer yes to that question. And "undecided" is the most appropriate answer to any question to which you couldn't possibly have enough information for a well-founded belief, one way or the other.

A claim that 60% of Democrats think it possible that Bush was behind 9/11 is not supportable. There is a big difference between having heard something about an event before it happens and perpetrating that event.
