Reply #5: Agree. Turn the War on Terra into a DEM positive. How? The Truth. [View All]

The Truth is: The Democrats know how to defeat Al Qaeda: a combination of intelligence, police work and military action.

The London plot was foiled because of a police informant -- they got a tip a year ago and broke into a house and found evidence and names.

The DEMs also should make clear to the American public:

We Democrats certainly wouldn't have let bin Laden escape at Bora Bora and we certainly would not have ignored the threats around the world since then.

We Democrats certainly wouldn't have spent the last five years twiddling our thumbs making the Indiana Corn Festival safe from the terror threat while ignoring the real security needs of the nation.

We Democrats certainly wouldn't sell control of America's ports to Dubai Ports World.

Given the truth, we Democrats wouldn't wouldn't have spent the last five years stuck in Iraq, the greatest strategic blunder in our nation's history.

And that, rather than stating we'll work together with the Republicans which got our nation into this sorry state of affairs, is the message the Democrats should be giving the American people.
