President Bush leading against his Democratic opponent by five percent on security matters must bring little comfort to Bush on the Iraq front.
Do you know why this is? It's because the American people think that getting rid of Saddam was a good idea. The big mistake that the Dems made was in choosing a constipated lurch like Kerry to compete against an amiable, smirking chimp like bush. And Kerry isn't
making the case against bush. He's digging a hole for himself. "I'm for losing the war and high gas prices" is a losing platform. And to think you could have had Edwards - a positive voice and a born winner.
The case against bush is not that he invaded Iraq. The Dems are losing on this issue because they are leaving out the other half of the equation - the fact that, by engaging Iraq, we are NOT
then able to fully engage al qaeda.
Because our military forces have been siphoned off and are now bogged down in order to facilitate the smirking chimp's personal peeing contest, bin laden is still walking around free, al queda is not destroyed, and the Iraqi excursion (tho' I'm happy to see the hussien boys dead and saddam in custody) has resulted in pushing many many
more marginal muslims into the extremeist camp.
I don't want kerry to win, but at the same I do want to see chimpy thrown out. You guys need to fix this situation and make the case that:
(W's war for "Freedom and Democracy" in Iraq) = (Loss of Freedom and Democracy in the U.S. + WTC murders go unavenged + bin laden remains free)
That's what will sell in Peoria.
Edwards would have figured this out by now. Ketchup boy sure hasn't.
