The real voice of America - Eric Margolis

I've received a huge e-mail response from around the globe in reply to my last Sunday Sun column. In it, I contended that George Bush's fabricated war against Iraq was a far worse crime than Watergate, and said the president and his men were either liars or unbelievably inept.

Most messages, about seven in every 10 by my estimate, came from Americans.

These messages do not represent a reliable cross-section of U.S. public opinion, of course. They are simply what was known as a "convenience sample" when I worked in market research. But they reveal much about the changing mood in America.

Most were well-written messages from intelligent, educated people appalled by what their government had done.

I was stunned by the volume of bitterly anti-Bush mail from his home state, Texas.

the thing that got me was that his steady stream of hate mail from the Rethug 'rustics' and 'religious fanatics' et al had slowed down and that he is getting more mail from Americans who are appalled at the Chimp, including Republicans who feel their party has been hijacked. The tide is turning.
