American Political Knowledge

A Washington Post-ABC News poll found that two-thirds of Americans believe that Atty. Gen. Alberto R. Gonzales' firing of eight U.S. attorneys was "politically motivated."

Your kidding me right? I'm going to do a random poll of my own the next few days to determine how many people can even tell me who Alberto Gonzales is. If 10% got it right, I'd probably fall on my butt from disbelief.

Here's a piece by Jonah Goldberg in which he states the obvious, how can we trust the non informed public to make important policy decisions.
