CNN: 43% still believe Saddam directly connected to 9/11

CNN just conducted a poll asking people if they thought Saddam Hussein was "personally involved" in the attacks on 9/11. Sadly, 43% still believe!

We all know how bad the mainstream media is when it comes to informing people, but I don't know how almost half of the American public can still believe in this connection. Especially considering that Bush even admitted that Iraq had "nothing" to do with 9/11.

I guess this is testimony to the power of all the pre-war propaganda.

The poll also found that the more educated you are, the more you likely you are to realize that there was no connection between the two. Here are the percentages of believers broken down by education level:

57% -- without a high school degree
54% -- high school grad
39% -- some college
26% -- college grad
19% -- post graduate

In another poll question, CNN found that 45% of Americans think that Iraq is part of the War on Terror and 53% believe it is not.
