Poll: Most voters want U.S. out of Iraq
December 6, 2005, 9:15 AM EST


NEW HAVEN, Conn. -- Most Americans think going to war was the wrong thing to do and want to see troops pulled out of Iraq, according to a new poll.

A Quinnipiac University poll released Tuesday shows that 60 percent of voters favor withdrawing from Iraq and 54 percent believe going to war was wrong.

Americans are split over whether President Bush deliberately misled Americans in making the case for war.

Bush posted his lowest Quinnipiac poll rating since taking office, with 40 percent of voters saying they approve of the job he is doing.

Congress fared even worse, with 61 percent of voters disapproving of the job it is doing. Members of Bush's administration, including Vice President Dick Cheney and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, also got disapproving marks.

Poll says Americans want troops withdrawn

(Hamden-AP, Dec. 6, 2005 6:33 AM) _ A Quinnipiac poll released today confirms what other polls have found: Americans are backing away from the Iraq war.

While 77 percent of respondents favor continuing the global war on terror, 60 percent say the U.S. should bring the troops home. Forty percent say that should happen right away.

And almost half of the respondents -- 49 percent -- say the Bush Administration deliberately misled the nation into war.
