Slightly more confidence in Obama than Bush to handle terror threats.

http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2010/im.../11/rel1aa.pdf

How much confidence do you have in the Obama administration to protect U.S. citizens from future acts of terrorism?
January 2010
24% A great deal
41% A moderate amount
19% Not much
16% None at all

How much confidence do you have in the Bush administration to protect U.S. citizens from future acts of terrorism?
August 2006
22% A great deal
37% A moderate amount
23% Not much
18% None at all



18. As you know, a man has been charged with attempting to use an explosive device on Christmas Day
to blow up a plane that was flying to Detroit. Do you approve or disapprove of the way Barack
Obama has responded to that incident?
Approve 57%
Disapprove 39%
No opinion 4%

We're releasing all the prisoners? I thought we were trying them in civilian and military courts?

There are few left. Bush released most of them.

Wasn't there a group of Yemeni prisoners released a week prior to the Christmas Day bombing attempt?

The truth lie in the years surveyed. You should be asking yourself why they gauged confidence only 1 year into Barack Obama's term, but didn't do the same for George W. Bush. This is the only fair way to assess confidence, but I wouldn't expect any of you GWB-hater's to understand that.

This is erroneous, biased surveying to the core. Had they been fair and asked about confidence in GWB after 1 year on the job, he would have beat the everloving schit out of Obama. The country was rallied around GWB at the one year mark.

Can't believe you folks fall for this tripe. (Actually, yes I can believe it.)

Don't know. So what? "A group" does not equal "all."

I didn't say all, jeez. And I was asking a question. You can bet there will be more released detainees though as judges throw out evidence against them. Evidence gathered in the battlefield now must be met with the same scrutiny as evidence gathered in a civilian crime scene in the US.
