Lack of WMDs in Iraq confirms Americans' beliefs that there were WMDs in Iraq

Well, apparently, another year of there not being evidence of WMDs in Iraq has caused 14% of Americans to change their minds about whether Iraq had them when we invaded in 2003, as a recent Harris poll shows that the percent of Americans who believe that is up from 36% to 50%.

64% of those polled also believed Saddam had "strong ties" to al Qaeda.

Congratulations media and public relations industry, you've out marketed reality.

Everyone else, welcome to Fairy Land.

Yes, that's exactly the sort of thing I expect responsible for the jump in believers.
