Bush says that the terrorists...
Take innocent lives to achieve a political objective, isn't that what he is doing.

1. Terrorists would tell you
..that they are doign what they do to protect thier people.

Also just like Shrub.

In fact it's amazing how many paralels one can find between Terrorists and the Cons.

6. Of Course It Is. In The Modern Age Anyway
It used to be that siege warfare punished entire populations for power.

Then we got "civilized" and started to fight for that power and land on battle fields removed from populations and winner took the spoils.

Then, the industrial age came along and the power to fight a war was based in the industry and innovation. So, we went back to laying siege, this time by lobbing cannons and dropping bombs and missiles into populated areas, and targeting strategic points. So, the point of modern warfare is to demoralize the population to diminish an opponents ability to wage war and reduce the citizenry's willingness to support it.

That's exactly what terrorists do, too! So, we've come full circle that war and terrorism are equivelent in all but the tools.

9.  Because they are bush worshippers...
Some really believe that he knows what he is talking about and is getting a raw deal. They fail to see that he has brought these problems on due to his arrogance, secrecy, hatefulness and pure ignorance.

4. Everytime he makes a speech when I listen I....
listen as if I am from other countries and usually you can see how he contridicts himself. You can also see how they are looking at it from their points of view.

1. Mr.bush is a twit
2. "terrorists" are always the other guys, in this day and age when "terrorist" is an overused term.
