More "Group Ignorance"

"Roughly six-in-ten people in the Pew sample (59 percent) said they want their member of Congress to back an Iraq funding bill that includes a timeline for American troops to begin withdrawing. Of that 59 percent, more than half (54 percent) said Democrats should "insist" on a timeline's inclusion in the legislation while 42 percent backed the party working with Republicans and the Bush Administration on a solution.

By contrast, only 33 percent of the overall sample said they preferred that their lawmaker oppose a timeline as part of the Iraq funding bill. But by a 54 percent to 41 percent margin, this minority said President Bush should stick to his guns and not compromise with Democrats.

Not surprisingly, Democrats surveyed by Pew were far more likely to back a bill that included a timeline than Republicans. Eighty percent of Democrats said they preferred that their congressman and senators vote for a bill with a timetable attached; just 31 percent of Republicans said the same."

Sounds to me like 31 percent of republicans are succumbing to the ignorance, I sure hope we have their phones and library cards tapped so they don't infiltrate the great hegemony of the stupid.
