One poll you won't hear in the news

The Gallup Poll recently came out with their yearly poll that gauges the public's confidence in various institutions. The results are indeed interesting. One can be 95% sure that the results are within +/-3%. The military is on top with a 73% confidence rating, despite the efforts of some people who wish to lower such a rating. The police follow at 58%. Third and fourth goes to the Church/organized religion (52%) and banks (49%) -- both at a statistical tie. The more liberal strongholds listed are thrown around the range below 40% along with some moderate and conservative strongholds.

While it is sad to see most institutions scoring rather low, there is definitely one thing that's clear: Men and women of the military, your country is behind you!
