Really dumb RW talking point
"By fighting insurgents in Iraq, we are preventing them from doing harm here"

Well then why the fuck did we just have the attack in Madrid? I don't get it? The war has NOT made us safer!

1. It's called "grasping at straws."
The Right is getting very, very good at it!

4. They are such idiots
As if the terrorists couldn't attack in more than one place at once!

AND, the total arrogant, cold, calculated murderousness of saying that -- basically that we sent our young people over there to be terrorist bait!

5. well, you're not in Madrid are you?
So what's your problem.



Actually the idea of using the innocent Iraqi's as terrorist bait is appallingly evil and just what I would expect from this administration.

6. ah.... the 'flypaper' spin
utter BULLSHIT

inflaming terrorists is good for business

perpetual war is good for business

bushco only cares about business

human lives are a line item slightly above toilet paper

or slightly below
