Faux News just DAMNED the GOP's Credibility (War on Terra)
Edited on Wed Oct-24-07 11:23 AM by berni_mccoy
By blaming the wildfires in CA on Al Qaeda, Faux News is basically saying the Republicans and the Bush Administration have LOST THE WAR ON TERROR.

The Congress that has a thin Democratic Majority has renewed, approved and forgiven EVERY BUSH TACTIC he as asked for to fight the War on Terror, including issuing a Resolution against Iran.

So, if Congress has given Bush everything he's asked for, including funding, then WHY IS AL QAEDA SETTING FIRES IN CALIFORNIA AND WHY HASN'T THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION STOPPED THEM!!!???!?!

3. Obviously
the "Fighting them there so we don't have to fight them over here" has been a failure. BushCo will have to come up with a new slogan. :sarcasm;

Faux Noise doesn't get how stupid they sound.

11. I'm going out for a pizza.



I can feel my "weird" threshold is close to being breached. I need a breather.

13. So, there's been another terrorist attack on US soil?
even with all the illegal wiretapping and the torture of people held since 9/12/2001?

Go figure ...

14. if it was al Qaeda, why
did they choose to destroy all those "liberals'" homes?

16. Oh, boy...that one was a stretch even for them.
Don't expect them (or their viewers) to connect the dots however. While I, and I'm sure all DUers see your point, their viewers aren't known for their critical thinking skills.
