California Warmongers

To hear the press report it, one would believe that all of California is heavily immersed in the anti-war effort. After all, San Francisco's home state can't be pro-war, can it?


But here we have a poll from the left leaning Field Institute that shows 76% of Californians supporting the war effort.

But the most surprising fact is reported by the SF Chronicle:

Despite the Bay Area's reputation as a hotbed for anti-war dissent, the overwhelming majority of residents support U.S. military action in Iraq

Truly, this should illustrate the protesters are very much in the minority (almost 2:1 in the Bay Area and 3:1 statewide).

It is time for them to put the signs down, forget the thirty year-old slogans and go back to their hovels.

I guess I don't have to move to Arizona after all!
