He calls Bush a murderer and then says he's surprised that offense was taken.

He didn't call Bush a murderer. Go ahead, read the original post. I'll wait. Done? Didn't see it, did you. Nice job putting words in his mouth.

However, he did say that if a terrorist attack occurred and it was due to lax immigration policy, then the blood of those killed would be on the hands of the Bush administration *AND* the Congress...which he is a member of. So he himself would have to shoulder some of that blame by his own words.

He said there would be blood on Bush's hands ( his administration) if there was another terrorist attack.

Somehow I don't think it's unreasonable to read blood on your hands as the same thing as if you'de killed the people yourself. That's what "blood on your hands" means.

Perhaps some of us should tell Tancredo that the blood of people seeking a better life in this country is on his hands. All those who die, the women and children..trying to get into this country....their blood is on Tancredo's hands. Just like he killed them himself.
You don't think this sort of inflamatory and hysterical rhetoric is unecessary?

When a person gets into an auto-accident and someone dies, we don't accuse him of having blood on his hands. Tancredo accused the adminstration of murder.

However, he did say that if a terrorist attack occurred and it was due to lax immigration policy, then the blood of those killed would be on the hands of the Bush administration *AND* the Congress...which he is a member of. So he himself would have to shoulder some of that blame by his own words.

I don't agree with that. The blood would be on the terrorists hands, not our government, unless they knowingly knew that people would die in a specific situation.
