Divided

According to a poll conducted by CNN/USA Today/Gallup, 57% percent of Americans believe the war in Iraq was not worth it. 41% of the 1,006 people polled still believe that it was worth going to war with Iraq, a 7% decrease since last February. The latest poll is the largest negative respondents to the war since it has started. Another poll question asked how Americans felt the current status of the country is. 56% of Americans feel that the country is in "bad" to "very bad" shape, up from 45% in March. 42% of respondents said the country is in "well" to "very well" shape. It seems as though the country is as divided as ever these days. Whether it is do to the war, the economy, or the President, a large schism has formed in our society and these new polls further show the division that is so prevalent today.
