Stupid article and inaccurate. There were certainly other attacks during
Bush's presidency... e.g., the anthrax attacks, not to mention his
bungling
the Katrina response, which if it had been an actual attack would have
been
a worse one than 9/11, and not to mention that he was warned about bin
laden
but went on vacation instead of doing something. Of course, that didn't
stop
him from going on vacation for approximately three of his eight years in
office.
His administration was mostly composed of chicken hawks, including Cheney.
Bush ignored Afganistan since 9/11, instead focusing on a war of choice
rather than necessity. Thus, we have the mess that McChrystal is
struggling
with now. God forbid Obama should actually try and figure out a strategy
that has a reasonable chance of stablizing the situation.
There is an old saying having to do with a Christmas Goose. Much of
the verbiage above would put you in that category.

All decisions, even those of liberals, are the result of binary thinking.
So, you have no rational response... got it.
