Democrats to debate Terrorists on Success of Bush Policies

Where have all the martyrs gone? In yet another shining example of how out of touch the Left is, Democrats and their MSM keepers are continuing the mantra about "George W. Bush's policies creating more terrorists."

But according to one of the leading terrorists on the planet, Abu Mousab al-Zarqawi, the reason the U.S. hasn't been attacked in recent years is because there is a lack of "willing martyrs". Put simply, there are not enough TERRORISTS to carry out attacks on the U.S. Doesn't get much more plain english than that.

Then there's fugitive Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar who has "lost control of the insurgency in Afghanistan while the number of attacks has fallen dramatically." Major General Eric T. Olson says the Taliban lack cohesion and are a fading force.

But Democrats think they know terrorism better than the some of the most notorious terrorists on the planet. In fact, the Democrats appear ready to open up a debate on the floors of Congress with terrorist leaders to remind them that they are stronger than they think they are. Perhaps the Democrats are trying to provide comfort to an ailing terrorism network, hoping to help the demoralized "freedom fighters" in their quest to oppose the evil George W. Bush.

Well, how else do you explain it?

Just last month on Softball, Chris Matthews lobbed one for Sheila Jackson Lee as she swung for the fence:

MATTHEWS: If you look at everything that‘s been done bureaucratically in creating this new intelligence post, and our war in Iraq, put it all together, do we have less of a terrorist threat now than we had when we started?

JACKSON LEE: ...absolutely not.

...

MATTHEWS: Do we have more terrorists facing us now than we did before this war in Iraq?

JACKSON LEE: I think we do, Chris. I absolutely think we do.

Sheila Jackson Lee apparently knows terrorism better than Zarqawi. I'm from Houston and have experienced her policies firsthand, so I'm not going to try an quash that notion. However, it is a line the Democrats have towed for the last few years, hoping to convince people that an alternate reality exists.

Senator Fritz Hollings claimed the U.S. had lost it's moral authority and claims Bush's policies have "created more terrorism".

Last August, John Kerry was trekking around the country, "charging that the president's policies have encouraged the creation of more terrorists."

Unfortunately for them, the terrorists themselves weren't provided the talking points memo.

President Bush summed it up nicely on the campaign trail last year.

Kerry, he said, exhibited a "dangerous misunderstanding of the enemy we face" in saying that Bush's policies in Iraq have created more terrorists. "We don't create terrorists by fighting back," Bush said. "We defeat terrorists by fighting back."

A point lost on the Left.

Some people, specifically most on the Left, have the right to remain IGNORANT!

Great post BTW!
