I'm pretty sure W would be included in all of the above, so he got 11 percent.
I just love how leftist fundies are so predictable. If we ran this poll on this site, the results would be just as skewed in the other direction.
But I keep forgetting, its not bias and mindless devotion to an ideal thats the problem, its bias and mindless devotion to the right that is the problem.
It's bias and mindless devotion in any direction that's the problem, Splat. Yes, you'd probably get opposite results at a far-left website. (there are more conservatives on this site than you might think, so I don't think it counts)
The difference here is that fundies have, literally, elevated GWB to divine status. Do a little search of this website, you'll find quotes that actually attribute divine traits to the man. That's just weird.
I'm pretty sure most of us would pick Kim Jong-Il, seeing that it is his country. It's just the direct answer.
North Korea's been on it's way to becoming a nuclear power since before the fall of the USSR Reagan, Bush, Clinton and Bush all did an equal amount of nothing about it.
Besides, how is it possible that none of the three, what are the others, the Australians or WHO?. Was Clinton using a gun and forcing Kim Jong-Il to use nuke?
Well the poll seems to suggest that 28% of the visitors to that site have a pretty good grasp of the immediate situation, and another 11% have a decent idea. Then there are the 53% who limit their reading to Spam Coulter and Bill O'Really. And 9% really, really, really need to read a damn newspaper at some point in their lives.
1. Kim Jong-Il is the leader of that country and the one who made all the decisions to make it a nuclear power in the first place.
(B) Second, why are no other nations' leaders mentioned here? If the U.S. president (or any of several of them) deserves any blame here, what about the various prime ministers of Great Britain, or of Japan, or of India, or the leaders of China, or Russia? Are North Korea and the U.S. the only nations to take account of here in this blamefest?
Third: It's interesting that Clinton gets such a huge portion of blame, yet SIX YEARS of Bush rule AFTER Clinton left office get none of it -- yet North Korea didn't become nuclear until now. Even that doesn't mean that Bush deserves any blame at all; it just points out part of the absurdity of blaming Clinton.

Right now they are at:
Former President Bill Clinton: 36%
Dictator Kim Jong-Il: 27%
President George W. Bush: 21%
All of the Above: 7%
None of the Above: 3%
Undecided: 7%
Still not really sane, but at least a bit closer to reality. I say, keep the votes coming.
The fact that Kim is among the candidates, and is in second place is absolutely stunning. I mean, forget Bush and Clinton. You can actually vote for the current dictator of the nation being called a nuclear threat, and you didn't. What the fuck?
Splat:
Clinton's been out of office for six years, but he managed to outsmart the whole W administration and give North Korea nukes. This isn't bias, this is vacuum headed stupidity that can only be found in a conservative.
Another example: leftist fundy is a contradiction in terms. You don't even know what fundy means.
I love how they think Clinton is more responsible for Kim Jong-Il's actions than Kim Jong-Il himself.
BTW, the results seem to have evened out with Clinton, Jong-Il, and Bush taking about equal blame.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
