First line of the PDF: "Presentation of Tea Party Poll Results"!
The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness. John Kenneth Galbraith
"The poll was done in support with Schoen’s most recent book, Mad as Hell: How the Tea Party Movement is Fundamentally Remaking Our Two-Party System, written with Scott Rasmussen."
Not sure if Schoen or Rasmussen were involved here. Both are respectable people.
"The movement is currently the most powerful and potent political force in America."( taken from your link.)
Do you actually believe that TeaBaggers are more powerful than either the Democrat or Republican party? The teaparty is a fringe group of Conservatives with no national representation or organization.

The military actions in Iraq and Afghanistan are a) a part of the larger War on Terrorism .. and IMHO justified b) being conducted with the approval of Congress by resolutions passed in 2001 and 2003 .. with support ing resolutions (including the appropriation of funds) by Congress THEREFORE they are NOT illegal wars or because it is part of a single larger War on Terror IS NOT an illegal war. They may be unpopular military actions in the minds of some ... but nevertheless they ARE NOT ILLEGAL.
Secondly, the popularity of a president has NEVER been reasonable grounds to either impeach or to use the 25th Amendment - which if invoked would only allow the Vice President to ACT as President but would NOT actually remove the President from office.
If we want to use popularity as a criteria for removing the Chief Executive of the United States then we would have to adopt a Parliamentary system like they have in Great Britain.
