George W. Bush vs. Paris Hilton, Dick Cheney in Hell (?), and 9/11 Conspiracy Theorists

A title like that can only derive from an August 2007 poll conducted for Radar Magazine (N=603). Among the findings:

- 54% of respondents said that they "hated" Bush, but 67% said they "hated" Paris Hilton. Democratic respondents were more likely to hate Bush (80%) than Hilton (54%).

- 55% of respondents think that Dick Cheney is going to hell. 38% said heaven. 4% said purgatory.

- 36% said "yes" when asked "Did the U.S. government know about the 9/11 attacks before they happened?" It is unclear how much of that 36% is composed of hardcore conspiracy theorists as opposed to those who are merely thinking about early warnings like the famous PDB.
