Reply #40: I like it, that's exactly what Kerry needs to do.

Hope you are one of the political consultants in his kitchen, seabeyond!

I have not trusted the Republicans since the Anthrax attack (whatever happened with that investigation?). Make no mistake, that was an attack on the Democrats. When IWR came up, we were 1 year removed from 9/11 and still in the dark about the root cause (no further along today, either). Were the Republicans hoping for a solid Democraic anti-war vote on Iraq? I think so. And I think another "event" here would have given Bush his causus belli to invade Iraq and the his dictatorship....and nuetralized the Democrats as an opposition for forseeable future.

This time, it won't work. Bush failed in Iraq (how they could think we could "win", I have no idea), and he has squandered his popular support. If another attack occurs here, he best resign immediately.

What I find extremely odd is using the flimsy "evidence" that terrorists slipped into Iran on their way to the US....we also let them into our country; so why should Iran be held to a different standard?

Earlier this week, we find Bush forgiving the Pakistani's $500MM in foreign debt. But we know the ISI (Pakistani CIA) was directly involved with the 9/11 terrorists and funneled money to them. And they are building warheads and selling them to North Korea. So just where is the consistancy in our WOT? And what about the real source of fundie terror....the House of Saud? There is no coherent application of the Bush Doctrine....why is that a surprise?

Bush cannot make a compelling case to start a war in Iran. And Kerry should call me on it. Let's make that a referendum issue on the election.
