Sadly, moron* has made terrorism and politics inseperatable...
As the sad tragedy unfolds in London, many people on here are making a heartfelt plea to be human for at least a day while the people of London try and take stock of their lives, safety and their country.

However, because of 9/11 we no longer live in a world of peaceful reflection. Why? You ask? Simple answer, george w. bush*. I have never in my life seen a person delight in the pain and suffering of others. More over, at every opportunity, he will march out 9/11 for his own political gain or to use it as a tactic in his own propaganda war.

So needless to say, will he make some sort of reference to 9/11 today, more than likely. Will he use this opportunity to promote fear, undoubtedly yes.

So for all of you here on this board who have become cynical in the face of tragedy (myself included), we are now a product of the moron* fear machine.

And most importantly, on a final note: My heart goes out to our friends, the British, on such a sad day. May peace smooth your brow and grief be lifted from your hearts.

1. That's was my first thought when I heard the news.
Thanks a lot Dumbya.

More innocent people have now died in London. Spain. Iraq. Afghanistan. USA. More than I can even remember, let alone mention. This is so sad.

My heart goes out to everyone who has lost loved ones in this next tragedy of the Bush* Crime Brigade.

For sharing your feelings.....

But having heard that the terrorists where glad that Bush won reealection and the simple conduct and lies of George Bush have continued to strengthen my belief that the biggest threat to global security is The Bush Administration .

I know for absolute certainty that he will mine this tragedy for personal gain and the american public will suffer more domestically from this.

I wish everyone in London the best recovery and safety....

Here's what a freeper said:

To: theDentist
If Chirac isn't pleased, which I'm sure he is, the entire Democrat Party in the USA is pleased to the "Nth" degree. They and bin Laden and his ilk are soul brothers!!! Wonder when the American people will ever wake up and destroy this traitor/treason party at the polls???

My answer: Um it isn't our guy who was down in the polls who started a war on unsubstantiated claims and .... I thought we were the party of "Give em Therapy" of course we are Horrified. How DARE you accuse us of being happy we don't ACCUSE you of it... just your leaders who will undoubtedly gain from this tragedy.

3. I may be alone on this, but I don't think this is good for Bush.
Attacks are now being conducted outside of Iraq and he contacts our Homeland Security Department to step up security at US transit sites. I thought we were fighting the terrorists in Iraq so that we didn't have to fight them here. Didn't we also hear something similar to, we are actually winning this war against the terrorists and I have a plan- my plan is working. WELL, I THINK WE NEED A NEW PLAN-ONE THAT ACTUALLY DOES WORK. How can we actually be winning when the terrorists are actually pulling well executed bombings such as this latest one off? DO I FEEL SAFER KNOWING BUSH HAS THIS UNDER CONTROL-YEAH, RIGHT!
