OK, so there were threats and violence before the invasion of Iraq.
But the point is: threats and violence have gotten WORSE since the invasion of Iraq. Why can't the Democrats articulate this fact in this way. Giving Bush the benefit of the "there were threats and violence" BEFORE the invasion of Iraq in no way refutes that things have only gotten worse and terrorists and terrorism has increased AFTER the invasion of Iraq.

1. Nobody can remember the past
It seems like it has *always* been this way, with the hatred and the degenerates
on every channel splooging the cynicism of their soulless mammon. And in partaking
of it can we act on our own terms, and not those of the bossman; kissing bossman's ass,
get a cheque and leave the shoes, coat and hat at the door, the soul, if indeed
there is some in the corporate life, is within each individual, and generally, cowered
in fear, the rank and file have always lived by threat, fear of survival or falling
in to working poverty, fear of being abused by the police, or falling sick without
insurance, fear of terrorism, and all the while ranks of shiny new police prance
about the planet to show off the fancy gear all those fear-taxes bought, subsidized
to violence and its legitimacy.
