"Had the president pursued the war on terrorism prior to initiating military action against Saddam Hussein, as I advocated last year, it is likely that al-Qaeda and other terrorist networks would not have been able to take advantage of the chaos that now exists in Baghdad and other parts of Iraq," said Sen. Bob Graham, D-Fla.

Uh huh, they would have been able to concentrate on striking in America again, you idiot.

Does this mean we can blame Bubba for the bombing of the WTC on 9/11?

We could be under Alien attack and the Rats will still blame Bush for not preventing the Alien invasion (Not the Illegal Aleins, but the other kind of Aliens).

These men are utterly disgusting. Islamic terrorists slaughter innocent people and all the Dems can do is try to play politics with it.

Right, and if I had sold all of my stocks at their peak I'd be much better off today.

As the UN refused the heavy US Military protection offered, one wonders if these people were sacrificed to make President Bush look bad. < /tinfoil hat >

The only likely thing is that whatever Bush did you would complain is was wrong.

Their statements are truly pathetic and serve absolutely no purpose.

It seems every statement they make digs their graves even deeper. Unfortunately, it also emboldens our enemies; possibly burying others with them.

Idiots:

Except for the recently built concrete wall, U.N. officials at the headquarters refused heavy security because the United Nations ``did not want a large American presence outside,'' said Salim Lone, the U.N. spokesman in Baghdad.

No you nitwit. They would have been knocking on your door at your summer home in the keys asking directions to the nearest munitions dump. Graham is like wine. If you don't store him right, he goes bad and needs to be poured out.

There is an article on Opinion Journal, drawing the connection between terrorism and Iraq. Judging from some of the responses, it is also part of the Democrat talking points to claim that Bush brought terrorism to Iraq, where none previously existed.

You have to give the left credit, they sure are organized.

Some of the Nine Dwarves are trying to spice up their foundering presidential campaigns by blaming President Bush for the deadly bombing at the U.N.'s headquarters in Baghdad.

When I hear Sen. Bob Graham, D-Fla, Sen. John (The French looking Ketchup Boy) Kerry, D-Mass. Sen. Joe Lieberman, D-Conn or Billary the Hitch talking about Bush did this, Bush did that Bush did not do whatever, I just think to my self, "Do you know how stupid you sound?"

Billary blamed Bush for letting the "Like new power grid get antiquated" in just under 3 years. There have not been any new, major power plants built in the U.S. since 1988. No new, major high voltage power lines have come on line since the early 1980s. That's new? How many people still drive 1980 model cars and expect them not to break down?

The sun didn't come up today. It's Bush's fault.

I banged my toe on my bed post last night. It's Bush's fault.

My toilet got stopped up and overflowed all over my bathroom. That's Bush's fault too.

What else can a Democrat blame on Bush?

What is going on here? The dumbocRATs are blaming Bush (about ten posts earlier) and now this article. The media will be so screwed up with these conflicting stories, they will say there were no suicide bombings yesterday. Those stories were "fabricated" by the Bush administration to take away attention from the power outage last week.
