Let me sound a dissenting note. Murray isn't talking so much about what Bin Laden has done as about what we (in her opinion) haven't.

Trying to turn this from one senator's voicing an ill-considered critique of our actions into her being a supporter of Bin Laden is a stretch that will only hurt us. By all means, point out that she's wrong on the facts; but leave it there.

[abclily]

Did you not read her words? She was praising Bin Laden's actions. You missed that?

No... you're wrong. ATTACK, ATTACK, ATTACK!

If I was a Republican senator, I would drag Byrd out to the podium and say... “You want KKK? Well here it is!”

Murray needs the same dose. “You want traitor? Well here it is!”

Orono, Maine? You must be a professor at the very liberal university there. Do you agree with twhat she said? That we could follow a terrorist's lead and build infrastructure for poor countries? Do you believe that we haven't already done so in thousands of places around the world, and to what effect? Is that going to make terrorism stop?

Maybe you should check your facts. Even while the Taliban was in power, the US was the largest provider of humanitarian aid to Afghanistan at over $100million/ year. In case you haven't noticed, the US annually allocates over $15billion to foreign aid. The only other nation that is even close is Japan, and they don't have the liability of providing for the defense of the free world. In fact, they don't even provide for their own defense.

You must be a Liberal, because the Liberal answer is always to confiscate more taxpayer dollars to send to the useless and dispicable.
