We haven't been attacked since 9/11!!!!!
Is anyone listening to the freeper on Randi? Don't you just love that line of reasoning?

3. Whatever happened to anthrax? The British embassy in NYC?
Oh, sorry, mustn't bring them up in order to support the false notion that we "haven't been attacked".

6. I wish that Randi would've mentioned those attacks...
She was mighty angry with that caller. She had him on the air for a long time.

7. What a fool!
He never had a chance. Randi does not take prisoners. I can't believe freepers call her and think they're going to make their point.

9. Antrax!, Anthrax, and more Anthrax!
Edited on Wed Jun-01-05 04:26 PM by Kurovski
When the Dem leadership and editors who print unflattering photos of the Bush girls are involved, it's suddenly not a terrorist attack.

And Randi made the point that that prick didn't care that our troops die from all the terrorist's that Bush's policies have created.

19. It's favorite "talking points" among the cons I know.
"If we weren't fighting 'terra' over there, they'd be here."
(Like our troops being in Iraq turned into terrorist magnets sucking in all the world's terrorists so we can pick them off. Forget the fact we simply creating more terrorists.)

"We haven't had a terrorist incident since 9/11."
(Not yet. But if BFEE needs another one, we'll get one.)

Of course they can't explain why our borders and ports are wide open; that almost nothing has been done for nearly 5 years. Or why Suspect 1, bin Laden, is still at large.

It's like they're Stepford Wives, repeating the same things over and over, with no understanding of what they're saying.

27. I had a guy who thinks that no matter what reason we're over there
fighting, it's a good thing, because he'd like to see all of them dead anyway. He thinks they're all less than human or something.

This dangerous racist thinking is reinforced by the constant drip drip drip of RW radio hate mongers. It's no wonder the cons now talk so casually about using nukes like they're playing some "Kill The Arabs" video game.

21. No attacks since 911! You can thank my lucky Democrat keychain!
It's because of my lucky Democrat keychain that we've not had any 911-style attacks since 911.

I can prove it;

We've not had any 911 attacks since 911.

26. That would explain those 1650+ dead and ten thousand plus wounded
since Iraq was related to 9/11. So, if you are keeping score,

Since 9/11 happenned: 4650 American dead, 10,000+ wounded, perhaps irreperably, over 100,000 Iraqis dead, including an unknown number of women, elderly and children.

So far, this war has cost well over 100,000 lives based on a lie.

28. I always wonder why NO ONE EVER MENTIONS the fact that
this county faced its biggest terrorist attack in history and this President did NOTHING to protect us from it! But then again, when you think about it (since I have recently joined the MIHOP team)--why would he protect us? All part of the plan...

31. I had some winger on a board tell me that if Bush had jumped up on 9/11...
Edited on Wed Jun-01-05 05:02 PM by LibInTexas
...in that classroom and started to roll into action after being told about the attacks, us liberals would have gotten angry becuase he didn't stay to finish is storybook reading upsetting the little kids.

This is the kind of moronic thinking (and how they think of us) that we're up against folks.

34. True, we haven't been attacked since 9/11
I was wondering though. Do you guys think we're any safer than we were before?

This I'm not sure about. Somehow, I don't think we are.

36. False. Anthrax is a weapon of mass destruction ...
and I clearly remember the attack on our national capital.

Why did this attack go down the memory hole?

Because they couldn't blame it on ay-rabs?

35. Reminds me of this fun story (my own version :) )
There's a guy on a corner in New York City with a large tuba decorated with a ton of glitter. The man is playing the tuba quite loud, enough that cab driver on a break notices him. The cabbie goes over and asks the strange music man what he is doing. The tuba trumpeter replies, "Why, this is my magical anti-elephant machine!" The cabbie feels obligated to tell the poor fellow that there aren't any elephants in Manhattan. To which, the brass bellower replies "See! It's working!"

37. Brain dead citizens...
who haven't a clue. I got the same rationale from a couple of "friends" who used it as the deciding factor in determining their vote for the chimp over Kerry. No matter what evidence I presented to bolster my case that chimp is an ineffective leader and protector of the body public, the more they seemed to close their eyes and brains to the obvious.

38.  Simpsons Episode I Recall, This guy reminded me of this one.
he man's point was this, "Well he must be doing something right, because we have not been attacked again"

It reminded me. There was an episode of the Simpsons, it was titles Bear Patrol.

Homer was mad because there was ONE bare found in the city, so the town went crazy and had round the clock "Bear Patrols" including stealth bombers....

So Homer says, "This Bear Patrol must be working, because I don't see any bears"

Lisa says, "Thats specious reasoning, with your logic I can say this rock keeps away tigers..."

Homer, "I like it, how does it work"

Lisa, "it dosn't, but you don't see any tigers do you"

Homer says, "I'll buy your rock"


So using this guys logic, Bush has not kept us safe, a rock has....

40. So? And???
It took eight years for whoever to plan 9/11, from the 1993 bombing of the WTC. We're not even four years out. They are patient. We are not.
