WASHINGTON (CNN [1]) – Hours before President Barack Obama departs for a trip to the Middle East, a new national poll suggests that only one in five Americans has a favorable view of Muslim countries.
That compares to 46 percent of the people questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey who say they have an unfavorable opinion of Muslim countries. That’s up five points from 2002, when 41 percent indicated they had an unfavorable view.
Three in ten meanwhile say they have a neutral opinion of Muslim countries
Hint most Americans are not as stupid as CNN, from ABC News [2]:
The suspect arrested in the fatal shooting of one soldier and the critical injury of another at a Little Rock, Ark., Army recruiting booth today was under investigation by the FBI’s Joint Terrorist Task Force since his return from Yemen, ABC News has learned.

The location of a fatal shooting outside a military recruitment office in a Little Rock, Ark., shopping center Monday, June 1, 2009, is shown. A new soldier helping to attract others to the military was shot and killed outside the office and a second soldier was wounded, and a suspect was arrested, police said.
(ABC News)The investigation was in its preliminary stages, authorities said, and was based on the suspect’s travel to Yemen and his arrest there for using a Somali passport.The suspect, Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad, 24, had changed his name from Carlos Leon Bledsoe after converting to the Muslim faith.
Yemen is a Muslim country. It where the USS Cole was attacked and Muslim was the religon of the Nine-Eleven hijackers. Most Americans are smart enough to know friend from foe and who is trying to kill us.
Mean while Michelle [3] points out that the one is so intent on killing the Muslim world’s ass that he is totally incapable fo performing his job as President of the United States:
[4]The news is what he left out.
Not a word about the jihadi attack on the two Army recruiters in Arkansas. No condemnation of the heinous attack and senseless violence. No condolences for the families of the targeted men or praise for the military recruiters who have been under increasing attack on U.S. soil. No statements from the DOJ or Pentagon, either.
Nothing.
Is that Barry has no shame, or that some moron forgot to program his teleprompter?
