riri posted the following:

At least with terror attacks people wake up and pay attention to what is going on around them. With this creeping socialist nightmare, our nation is slowly having the soul zapped out of it.

This statement is constructed in such a manner as to lead one to believe that while there is some merit in a terrorist attack ("At least....people wake up and pay attention to what is going on around them"), there is NO merit in the "creeping socialist nightmare".

My question stands, and I would like an explanation. Does riri really believe that a terrorist attack is better than funding NEA?

An explanation to what?

Your torturously constructed and intentional misinterpretation of someone else's post?

Why is the congress getting a free pass. While the president pushed hard for most of the bills, the congress could have easily pushed back. Thats why I feel that the senate and congress should be term limited. Otherwise the pork spending will never stop.

That is a demented line of thinking.

I believe ousting Bush and sending a message is important. If doing so creates conditions that lead to another terror attack then I would still say ousting Bush was essential.

No, I do not want a terror attack. What I want is a president who is strong on national security but not prone to committing national and cultural suicide. This NEA thing is but another absurdity in along line of absurdities. My real issue is immigration.

BTW, I don't owe you an explanation. I am entitled to my opinion.But twisting my words to say I somehow am craving another terror attack is, at best, ridiculous-at worst sinister.

Look, you and I are are not only not on the same page. We are not even in the same library. I suggest you post to other people who share your Bush Bot anthology.
