Anyone watch the Homeland Security speech by bu$h?
This is sickening! Terraists, Terraists, Terraists., 9/11, stop them before they reach or shores, Terraists, Terraists, 9/11 ....

Is this all this asshole can talk about? Its the same lines of shit at everyone of his appearances! A broken record!

This disgusts me but where I live people love to hear this crap. "He makes me feel safer and he's doing what Clinton should have done". "He's brave and standing up to the terrorists".

AAARRGGHHH!!!

What has happened to our country?

1. He's NOT doing what Clinton did!
Bill Clinton's administration prevented at least two September 11-style terrorist attacks on American soil.

September 11th happened on B*sh's watch! How is he keeping us safe?

2. Yeah I saw it
Was on the phone, though, so didn't pay much attention.
But every other word I heard was "terror", it seemed.

The line I hear him use alot that I really hate is something along the lines of "We can fight terrorists in the streets of Baghdad, or we can fight them in the streets of New York"...

As though there were a massive army of terrorists waiting to invade...

3. Something is out of whack here....
Bush is taking a huge hit in every poll you can find on the economy and all other domestic issues. The "geniuses" on his staff have GOT to be aware of this and yet he yaks and yaks and yaks about "terra" and 9/11. It has gotten to the point of being a cliche' for him to give a speech.

They haven't changed a thing!

5. Have they run out of tricks?
What are they going to do? They overplayed their hand with Iraq, and apparently they are out of chips.

8. The line about not living in the past
was especially ludicrous, I thought. Why some people can't see the hypocrisy is a total mystery to me. It scares me to think so many people are that stupid.

10. You Must Repudiate the Paridigm
That's why the dem candidate matters. Some propose that they would do a better job capitalizing on the Bush paridigm of fear and suspicion. Others offer a change of view.
