I thought we were "safer"? And I thought intelligence was unreliable

Oh that must have been LAST month. This month, we aren't safer and intelligence is highly reliable. :eyes:

If we aren't "safer" then doesn't that make the "War on Terra" a failure? :shrug:

When will the madness end? (November '04 please God please)

1. This is actually a good argument against Bush

Isn't the argument of those staunch Bush supporters that he is strong in his fight against terrorism? And if we would vote for Kerry, we would have more terrorism? If Bush is that good, how come we live in fear? How come that they announce another terrorist threat this summer?

If he would have stayed on the ball and focused on terrorists and Al Qaeda, instead of starting an unnecessary war on Iraq, we wouldn't be in that mess.

Instead, he pissed of most of the Arab world, created about 18,000 recruits for Al Qaeda, and has increased the chance that we'll have another attack. What an incompetent a**hole

2. It is reliable ...

they're basing it on a memo from August 6 which states Bin Ladin is planning a possible attack on US cities.

3. The only thing that is reliable is the following

When Smirk's poll numbers go down, there are Terra Lerts.

When his poll numbers go up, they don't talk about Terra except to say that he is "making the world safe from the Terraists.

It's so predictable you could set your watch by it.
