Where did you come up with this information?
The majority of people in the U.S. are pro-choice for non-late term abortions. The majority of people in the U.S. are not anti-abortion for late term abortions which are deemed necessary for the safety of the mother.
The majority of the people in the U.S. do not even know what "partial birth abortion" is - do you know what it is? It's so vague as to be essentially undefinable or omni-definable. The only thing that is certain is that it has nothing to do with BIRTH - it has to do with the location of the fetus at the stage of abortion. I imagine that the majority of the people in this country do not believe Congressmen and Clergy should define what is and what is not a medical necessity.
The majority of people in the U.S. are opposed to any type of Constitutional amendment to define marriage. The majority of people in the U.S. believe that the legalities of marriage should be left up to the States.
The VAST majority (over 70% according to polls in the weeks running up to the war) of people in the U.S. did NOT support the war on Iraq WITHOUT U.N. authorization.
I think this is the majority that smooth is referring to.
