"Five years after 9/11, the worst attack on the American homeland in our history, the Democrats offer nothing but criticism and obstruction and endless second-guessing," Bush told a GOP fundraising event in Birmingham, Alabama, on Sept. 28. "The party of F.D.R. and the party of Harry Truman has become the party of cut and run."There he goes again..."Five years after 9/11, second-guessing - cutting and running" ...blah, blah, blah...Who among us, besides half of the 40% still too embarrassed to admit they were duped...do not remember Bush himself admitting Iraq had "nothing" to do with 9/11?
Why does he keep bringing up 9/11 when facing criticism of his war in Iraq? Why, because he knows all he has left is the 20% of the population too dumb to know better and the other 20% too embarrassed to change so he might as well keep them fired up for the fall elections.
Scare them a little and they herd like sheep - and 42% is better than 31%.
The Bush and Republican rhetoric is so 2004 and I don't think independent voters will fall for it again this election. But, I guess we'll have to wait and see....
