And even if he and the Republicans do seek to benefit from the foiled plot, so what?

Would the dems rather have more thousands dead?

Would the dems rather have more thousands dead?

We all know the answer to that question - ANYTHING for the RATS to gain power, even if it means destroying the country. They think they can "fix it all back up" after they gain their birthright power back again.

[nopardons]

Yes, you bet they would! That way, no matter what their party affiliation was, when they were alive, they can make them vote for Dems, when they're dead.

Did it say anything about Democrats seeking political advantage from the failed plot? Didn't think so.

"Terrorism remains the greatest threat to our security," said Harry Reid, the top Democrat in the US Senate. "As a result of mismanagement and the wrong funding priorities, we are not as safe as we should be."

"Terrorism Democrats grandstanding remains the greatest threat to our security," said Harry Reid, the top Democrat in the US Senate. "As a result of mismanagement partisan obstructionism and the wrong funding priorities, we are not as safe as we should be."

Pete Wilson's afternoon show on KGO was a hoot today. An incredible number of San Franciscans are claiming that Rove/Bush scheduled this just to keep control of the Congress.

Weighed down by the unpopular war in Iraq...

As much as the press and liberals seem to be gripping, it seems pretty popular to me!!

I heard the President's speech, if anything he bent over backward to NOT make it sound political. If fighting terrorism is "political" to the turdheads, so be it.

[Cinnamon]

there is no doubt the demoncrats would rather have death on their hands for political advantage. amazing that they look at every victory against terrorism as a ploy against them... do they realize what this makes them look like?

President Bush's remarks and officials speaking on condition of not being named equals seeking political gains from the foiled terror plot. I'd like to see the picture that connect-the-dots page makes.

There are people in the world who want to kill as many of us as they can. What part of this does the MSM not understand?

[Question Liberal Authority]

A better headline would be:

"London Plot Proves Bush Was Right The Whole Time"

[aligncare]

Ooh, ooh....this is my favorite part:

Bush's remarks came a day after the White House orchestrated an exceptionally aggressive campaign to tar opposition Democrats as weak on terrorism, knowing what Democrats didn't: News of the plot could soon break.

*big grin*

[NormsRevenge]

at least he isn't wearing a bow tie like the other bloke.

[RedRover]

Gee, wonder why President Bush didn't brief Senator Leaky in advance?

AFP: Bush seeks deserves political gains from foiled plot

There, fixed it.

He deserves our gratitude as well.

[umgud]

A little slow on the trigger Norm, DU's had this up for quite a while now. I didn't bother to read their comments, which I assume are rather predictable.

[goldstategop]

Democrats never benefit politically from the dead. Its Republicans who get accused of being ghouls in invoking the specter of 9/11.

(Go Israel, Go! Slap 'Em Down Hezbullies.)

I'm wondering what he is looking at on the screen and if his pants are down around his ankles.
