#1 He's taking a terrible gamble, If he gets the slot and we get hit by terrorists he's gonna look like a real dumbass. If he fails to respond in a very stiff manner he's going to look like he's in cahoots with the islamists, if he retaliates, his base is going to scream bloody murder. He's laying the groundwork for a no win situation if you ask me.

#2 Bigjim, no problem. If a democrat wins in 2008, and on September 11, 2009, the US gets hit by a massive terrorist attack, the president will simply blame it on Bush, and everything will be ok.

#3 Fact is it doesn't matter what he says. If there is a terrorist attack the Dems lose the election and go nuts claiming Cheney planned the attack.

My question is would Al Queda have the brains to lay low and wait until they had a President they could recover and regain ground on or would they attempt to restart their Holy War by attacking before the election. I really don't know because they don't seem to really follow what I consider logical or smart gameplans.

#4 they don't seem to really follow what I consider logical or smart gameplans.

Follow that thought, what's "Rational" for Fanatics is NOT for non-Fanatics, you'd have to be a worshiper to comprehend, then you'd not be able to comprehend anyway, it's a vicious trap, in, but never out, Down, never up, dumber, never smarter.

#5 Hit Submit too quickly,

The ones who do NOT fall into the trap are NOT Islamic.
