Hmm, Clinton's eight years of doing nothing about terror = the worst terror attack on America ever.

Bush's almost three years of taking the war to the terrorist = no major terror attacks on the US.

The math is rather obvious here...

I hope the Iraqi war IS inciting terrorists, the more that come out the more we can kill. The more we kill the safer we are.

I saw part of this interview on CNN though they cut it off as soon as Bush stopped the interviewer from interrupting and was about to blow her (interviewer) out of the water noting it was peaceful on the morning of 9/11 too ;)

You're right. As they're "incited", they become self-identified and a whole lot easier to kill that way. Personally, I'd love it if the whole stinking lot of them flew to Iraq and proceeded to become bomb fodder for our military forces. I'm sure they'd love the practice.

Hmmm, personally I liked the idea of Iraq being a big terrorist bug zapper in the middle of the Mideast.

I do too, but that also goes counter to our larger goals there - a stable, democratic Iraq. Eventually it will happen and the terrorists will have to go to the weaker spots - Saudi , Pakistan, etc... which they are doing.
