From Bush's Speech Today
"...They seek to exploit a great religion, but in truth, they are animated by nothing but their own lust for power and their desire for dominion over others. And while they may sow death and destruction for a time, the history of the last half-century is clear..."

Is it just me, or does this sound a little like a projection of Republican/Right Wing/Dominionist political tactics onto the terrorists?

1. This line stood out when I watched the speech.
No one else noticed?

4. That's what it sounds like to me...
Classic projection (psychology 101) -- he's so textbook.

5. I laughed when I heard him say that
I though he should just quit talking about himself so much...

8. "Never ascribe to your opponent motives meaner than your own".
James Barrie most known for play Peter Pan.

I love this quote. And i believe it speaks volumes, profound volumes.
