I wasn't aware that this was a trick question - did 62% of the people who took this poll overlook that last line that says "Evidence of such weapons has not been found."? If the Bush Administration could find even a shred of evidence, they'd be all over it. Is this mass hysteria, mass hypnosis, or am I missing something?
