Bush defined victory for the terrorists soon after 9/11 saying to us," don't let fear change our way of life. or the terrorists will win. That's what terrorists do...try to change our way of life.". So our economy is shot;our dollar has lost its value in the world market; we detain suspected terrorist without due process; we torture detainees; we violate our rights to privacy by unwarrented wiretapping;we are no longer respected in the world as the model for human rights. I guess, according to Bush's definition, the terrorists have won.On the issue of premptive strikes and funding the war, McCain IS another Bush. SURE THEY WOULD LIKE HIM ELECTED....NO SURPRISE!

In March 1994, four men were convicted of carrying out the bombing and in November 1997, two more were convicted. No wars or military interventions started, no innocent civilians killed in the aprehension of these 6 terrorists. 2001 WTC bombing; Republican Bush is President. 1 arrest and conviction of a guy who did not take part in it. Ringleader still at large. 2 wars started to try and stop and apprehend terrorists. tens of thousands of innocent civilians killed in the pursuit and apprehension of 2 alleged terrorists. O convictions to date. So Clinton 6 arrests and convictions in 4 years, 0 wars, 0 dead civilians, 0 military dead. So Bush 3 arrests, 1 conviction in 7 years, 2 wars, untold thousands of dead civilains, 4000+ dead military Guillianai drop by my place and we can wear dresses and make up and be discriminated against together! I would invite you Rush but you aren't even a passable guy let alone woman! Reality Check!
