Republicans are WEAK on terror. - Proof!

OK, everyone and their dog has now seen Ann Coulter get her scawny ass kicked by Kirsten Powers on Fox.

Waaayyy too funny.

But aside from the health benefits of a good belly-laugh from seeing "poor little Annie" whining for help, looking back and forth and flicking her hair back as if to say "help, I'm a girl, someone please HELP ME", and acting like the poor victim of the liberals she loves to pour hate on, how can we use this to our advantage?

I'll tell you how.

She slipped up and blurted out a searing truth that we need to pound into the head of every uninformed dipshit in the country.

Bush (and right-wing morons like Ann Coulter) could care less if we catch a mass murderer. They are by definition WEAK on terror...

First, we need to remember what the problem is: We have a public that's so uninformed and misinformed that they think Osama bin Laden was in cahoots with Saddam Hussein. They think we found WMDs in Iraq. They don't know Republicans control both houses.

In other words, they have no idea what's going on. Literally. They need our help, because, unfortunately, they vote. They take their uninformed (or worse, Faux-informed) asses to the polls and they vote for the Republicans.

It's hard to inform someone who pretty much doesn't have a single clue what's going on. But we now have a simple tool, and a simple message:

Watch the video. See how much Ann Coulter cares about whether we catch a guy who killed 3,000 Americans and cost us all Trillions of dollars (the cost of the GWOT).

She. Doesn't. CARE.

Here's what she says: (at 1:00 into the video)

...umm, As for catching Osama, umm, it's irrelevant...

...I mean, he's like a fading movie star...

Got that?
"He's like a fading movie star", so catching him or killing him is "irrelevant".

Meanwhile, back in reality...

Poll: Most think bin Laden planning another U.S. attack

Wednesday, August 23, 2006; Posted: 9:06 p.m. EDT (01:06 GMT)

(CNN) -- As the five-year anniversary of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks approaches, nearly three-fourths of those responding to a CNN poll said they believe Osama bin Laden is planning another significant attack against the United States...

So a huge majority of Americans think the "fading movie star" is plotting a major terrorist attack, but Ann Coulter says catching or killing him is "irrelevant."

THAT ought to get her kicked off the air. But where would she get such an idea? MAYBE FROM BUSH?...

"I don't know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority."
- G.W. Bush, 3/13/02

"I am truly not that concerned about him."
- G.W. Bush, repsonding to a question about bin Laden's whereabouts,
3/13/02 (The New American, 4/8/02)

Video works. It penetrates the mind in ways that printed or spoken words cannot. You know what to do. Show your wingnut friends the video, and send them the Bush quotes. Watch their brain heat up. Provide facts to keep them moving in the right direction...
