Here are some really very jarring poll results:

A Zogby Interactive poll of nearly 2,300 likely voters conducted from Nov. 4-6 found a plurality (48%) saying President Obama's deliberations on whether to increase Afghan troop levels showed weakness on his part, rather than strength.

We had eight years of a disastrous shoot-first-and-ask-questions-later (-if-ever) approach to foreign policy, but half of Americans appear to want more of that.  For half of this country, thinking stuff through is an activity reserved for weakling pointy-heads.
