"I think you are exactly right. It just hit me that the President is backed into a really bad corner. Bush won't raise the threat level for exactly that reason. But if there is a large attack in the next few days Bush could be screwed because the LLL/MSM will scream that Bush knew and did nothing to protect us. That would be enough to throw the election to Kerry. I pray to God that scenario doesn't play out, but if I were a terrorist and wanted to get rid of Bush, that's exactly the way I would play it."
I'm a little confused. I know damn right well that OBL isn't stupid enough to actually believe that had GWB not been reading to a classroom of kids, more people in the WTC could have been saved, so I'm confused as to why he would poke his head out of his little sandbox to make such a statement. He also said that our security is in our own hands, which many, including myself, took to mean as "vote for Kerry or else;" as to say that GWB is their reason for their attacking in the first place. So if GWB is their justification for any attack and they have one planned now, why want him out office? I keep thinking maybe he doesn't and that's why he made the statement about our security. God knows, many were ticked when Spain bowed and it could just serve to make many more resolved in the upcoming election not to bow to OBL's threat to what basically boils down to "vote for Kerry or else." Maybe he's counting on that? Sorry if this doesn't make sense, like I said, I'm confused...
In my opinion, they want Bush out of office because they know that Kerry won't do a thing to seriouly continue the WOT. He'll capitulate like the cheese eating surrender monkey he is.
