CNN Poll: Most doubt Bush has plan for Iraq victory

(CNN) -- As President Bush launched a new effort Wednesday to gain public support for the Iraq war, a new poll found most Americans do not believe he has a plan that will achieve victory.

But the CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll released Wednesday night also found nearly six in 10 Americans said U.S. troops should not be withdrawn from Iraq until certain goals are achieved.

Just 35 percent wanted to set a specific timetable for their exit, as some critics of the war have suggested.

3. Huh? Nowhere in that story is the phrase "war on Iraq" used.

It uses "the Iraq war" a couple of times and mentions the "U.S.-led invasion". What does your comment mean vis-a-vis this story?

4. 'Plan for Victory' and the phrase 'Iraq War' = war on Iraq.

It seems to be that we are fighting a war against Iraqis instead of "liberating them" as Bu$h originally said he would do.
