Are the Dems going to sink so low as to rebut this speech or provide counter points after????

I doubt it ... that's a fight they know they'll lose.

Their response is going to be that Bush cynically used the speech to politicize the anniversary in advance of the mid-terms.

Yeah, they probably will BUT this is NOT political. It's about survival. The only political part about it is that it's a Republican President telling it like it is, and the Dems don't like it.
