President Bush suggested Thursday that Democrats don’t have the stomach to fight the war on terror, battling back in the election-season clamor over administration intelligence showing terrorism spreading.
"Five years after 9/11, the worst attack on the American homeland in our history, Democrats offer nothing but criticism and obstruction and endless second-guessing," Bush said at a Republican fundraiser.
"The party of FDR and the party of Harry Truman has become the party of cut and run."
He says we don’t have the stomach to fight the War on Terror because we question his handling of things. Another possibility is that his handling of things has achieved a level of incompetence that is staggering. He’s not fighting any War on Terror. He’s subsidizing a Learning Lab for Terrorists in Iraq.
Would it be politically correct to refer to him hereafter as that cocky little prick in the White House?
[…] The really hard part for me is that the War on Terror and the War in Iraq are still equated in every speech. Today, it was, "Five years after 9/11, the worst attack on the American homeland in our history, Democrats offer nothing but criticism and obstruction and endless second-guessing. The party of FDR and the party of Harry Truman has become the party of cut and run." In spite of having to admit that going to war with Iraq had nothing to do with the 911 attack, these things are equated in every speech – every single speech, including the one where the admission was made. In spite of knowing that there is no longer any way to connect 911 with the War in Iraq, they keep saying it. In spite of N.I,E. that says the war is fueling the Terrorists’ growth and going very badly, they keep telling us it’s a good idea. […]
