The People Are Speaking

Not only were the world's people running, running, wild in the streets this past week end, and giving pollsters what-for, but they're making their opinions known online as well.

A Time magazine online poll, boasting more than 270,000 respondents to-date (and still counting), finds that 83% consider the United States the "greatest threat to world peace in 2003", compared with 9% who've chosen Iraq, and 8% North Korea.

Meanwhile, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer's daily poll for January 21 found 48% opposing an attack, with only 29% approving (and 22% with mixed feelings).

Not to be outdone, CNN's "Question of the Day" for January 21 found that 76% of people consider Sen. Kennedy's "views most like [theirs] when it comes to the Iraqi crisis," as opposed to 24% who chose Pres. Bush.
