There's a new Gallup Poll out today - and it just proves that Democrats need to get some stones: "Americans Still Prefer Republicans for Combating Terrorism..."
As we remember 9/11 let's try to remember who sat in the White House, who controlled the Senate and the House - it sure wasn't DEMOCRATS! And if you want to know who was in charge of every military and intelligence committee and subcommittee - IT SURE WASN'T DEMOCRATS. And yet Americans think Republicans will keep us safer:
Americans continue to give the Republican Party a slight edge over the Democratic Party -- 49% vs. 42% -- in their perceptions of the party that will better protect the United States from international terrorism and military threats. The Republicans' edge on this issue is unchanged from last year but has diminished from earlier in the decade
So how can this be? How can the party that ignored intelligence and controlled the congress and the White House on the WORSE DAY IN AMERICAN history - how can the party that sat idle as terrorists attacked with impunity (Osama still roams free) - how can that be true?
It's because DEMOCRATS gave REPUBLICANS a pass. They sure did. Not ONCE was George Bush or NATIONAL SECURITY EXPERT Dick Cheney EVER called to the mat to explain HOW they FAILED us so on THAT DAY! Not ONCE!!!
How? Even now - as Republicans masturbate to hopes of a new terrorist attack - SO THEY CAN BLAME OBAMA - even as DICK CHENEY and his disgusting SPAWN take to the airwaves to tell us ALL HOW POORLY OBAMA protects this nation - no ONE - NEVER - asks Dick or Liz about DICK's FAILURE on 9/11.
Even as ANY QUESTION of BUSH complicity in the attacks and subsequent inability to capture bin Laden is deemed OFF LIMITS (just ask Van Jones) - the Republicans have struck a NON-STOP Drumbeat accusing Obama of every sin in the book - and then some - as well as INSISTING that OBAMA is setting up this nation FOR ANOTHER attack...
And the DEMOCRATS REMAIN SILENT...
Let me ask my fellow Kosians: if there is ANOTHER ATTACK - will REPUBLICANS LINE UP BEHIND OBAMA?
Or will they celebrate and prepare their campaign commercials?
