What's bothering me the most today?

A Newsweek poll in September 2004 showed that 36% believed "Saddam Husseinfs regime in Iraq was directly involved in planning, financing, or carrying out the terrorist attacks of September 11th, 2001."

Now the number in the same poll is 41%.

In a separate question, 20% said that "most" of the 9/11 hijackers came from Iraq. The correct answer, Saudi Arabia, was chosen by 43%.

The only answer is that someone must be putting something in America's water. Nothing else, that I can think of, can explain that level of sheer stupidity.

Either that, or the poll was taken at the annual "Rush Limbaugh Fan Club" convention :bonk: [/list:u]

If the majority of American highschool students can't name their last five presidents (according to a study done a few years ago), there's so surprise here at all.

I'm just disgusted with the idea of making a drama finale open ended because of the fact that they're protecting a j-idol's image. :grumble:
eg. no clear cut romantic ending because the fangirls of the certain idol might not like their "bishounen" to end up living "happily ever after" with the leading lady. it's just plain stupid. why make a romantic comedy/drama if you'll let such trivial things mess up the scipt or story? oh well, i guess it's just my honest opinion on these things...I apologize if some fangirls here are offended. :shakehead:

No need to apologize... They don't apologize for posting their blather here at J-D do they? :beaten:

LOL! And besides, if girls actually get riled up because their fav celeb gets married or whatever in a drama, then they really are just fangirl airheads. :shakehead:
