Ahhhhhhhhh!!!
CNN last night, presented without qualification, without challenge.:
BEN VENZKE, INTELCENTER: Al Qaeda feels that Bush is, even despite casualties, right or wrong for staying there is going to stay much longer than possibly what they might hope a Democratic administration would.
So, besides saying that if Kerry wins the terrorists win -- a statement so ridiculous and scary it makes me want to bash my head into a wall -- note that the statement also says that we are fighting Al Qaeda in Iraq. Iraq is a war against Al Qaeda? What a complete load of shit!
And again, I can't stress this enough, our presence in Iraq is good for Al Qaeda. A more moderate policy towards the Middle East, what the statement implies a Democratic President would institute, would probably weaken Al Qaeda's support and recruitment, while our aggressive policy clearly has emboldened them and created more sympathy for their cause among Arabs.
Atrios suggests that everyone call CNN and complain:
