Help? need link to PAPI study showing repub ignorance of world affairs
maybe I have the name wrong because nothing came up in a search but there were considerable buzz yesterday about a study that showed bush supporters were, well, under-informed about a range of world issues and bush's position on them.

need this for The Guy James Show today. thanks!

3. Interesting report... and I have one disagreement
Edited on Sat Oct-23-04 10:20 AM by supernova
"The roots of the Bush supporters' resistance to information," according to Steven Kull, "very likely lie in the traumatic experience of 9/11 and equally in the near pitch-perfect leadership that President Bush showed in its immediate wake. ..."


I agree people believe we could do no wrong after 9/11, but it think that * was some sort of leadership god after 9/11 is laughable. He did what was necessary; the best he knew how. But I don't see that effort as mythic. He has huge mountains to climb on that score.

edit: clarification.
