Malkin is ballyhooing the latest Rasmussen poll indicating that 58 percent of likely voters think that releasing the OLC torture memos damages national security. Malkin of course mistakenly takes this to mean that people want the president to move on and not investigate. Typically ridiculous conclusion. Firstly, the memos have already been released, and, secondly, the poll doesn't include any numbers about investigations or prosecutions.
Though a Gallup poll from February shows that 62 percent want investigations or a commission on the Bushie torture policies. Only 34 percent are against such investigations.
Sorry, Malkin. Wrong again. By the way, if you're suddenly interested in polls, you'll probably want to pay attention to the right-track wrong-track numbers. Your tea party porkulus crap isn't working.
But the dueling poll numbers appear to show that Americans are interested in accountability, even if it means harming national security. This is good news, and goes a long way towards shaking off the fear of the post-9/11 era.
