For the most part he has prevented another attack from occurring on these shores.
Mixed emotions really. Another attack might have saved me from exposure to another one of your anti Bush threads.

This was his best joke. It was really funny when Bush looked for WMD in the oval office.
Har, har, har. Oh, God, it is just so funny that we invaded another country on false pretenses and started an occupation that has now led to the death of over 3500 US soldiers. Har, har, har.

| Quote: | Bush's Iraq WMDs joke backfires
The president could be seen bending over to peer at the floor of the Oval Office
US President George W Bush has sparked a political row by making a joke about the failure to find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
At a black-tie dinner for journalists, Mr Bush narrated a slide show poking fun at himself and other members of his administration.
One pictured Mr Bush looking under a piece of furniture in the Oval Office, at which the president remarked: "Those weapons of mass destruction have got to be here somewhere."
After another one, showing him scouring the corner of a room, Mr Bush said: "No, no weapons over there," he said.
And as a third picture, this time showing him leaning over, appeared on the screen the president was heard to say: "Maybe under here?"
If George Bush thinks his deceptive rationale for going to war is a laughing matter, then he's even more out of touch than we thought
John Kerry
Democratic Party challenger for the presidency
The audience at Wednesday's 60th annual dinner of the Radio and Television Correspondents' Association obviously thought the quips hilarious - there were laughs all round - but the next morning, in the cold light of day, things looked far less amusing.
The joke about the fruitless search for Iraqi WMDs so far, Washington's prime justification for the US-led invasion, has been branded as tasteless and ill-judged.
'Undermining' sacrifices
Mr Bush's election challenger Senator John Kerry described the president's attitude as "stunningly cavalier".
"If George Bush thinks his deceptive rationale for going to war is a laughing matter, then he's even more out of touch than we thought," he said in a written statement.
"Unfortunately for the president, this is not a joke."
Mr Kerry's statement also included a comment from Iraq war veteran Brad Owens, who said: "War is the single most serious event that a president or government can carry its people into.
"This cheapens the sacrifice that American soldiers and their families are dealing with every single day."
More than 500 US soldiers have died in the war and thousands more have been injured.
US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was asked what he thought of this incident at a press conference on Friday, but he dodged the issue, saying that he couldn't comment as he hadn't been at the event. |

So if he going to take credit for that, we can blame him for 9/11? Can't have one without the other.

Not sure.
Pre 9-11 did we have the Patriot Act, increased airport security, increased border security, increased port security, increased radical Muslim scrutiny, close examination of financial records, frozen terrorist accounts, and unshackled FBI agents free to perform their missions?

Sorry, too late. The rules here are if Bush gets the credit for stopping terrorist attacks, then he takes the blame for 9/11.

He squandered the international good will America had in the days after 9/11 to engage in an aggressive war of choice that has led to the deaths of more than 3,500 good young Americans and has made the world less safe. But at least he beat democrats.
Duh.
Duh.
Duh.
Duh.
