need some articles/links on how we are NOT safer
To respond to a Freeper co-worker who said that 9 out of 10 terrorists prefer Kerry...

My first two are 1) the American Conservative magazine interview with Anonymous saying that the invasion of Iraq was an XMas present to Osama

And, the 3/17/04 Al Qaeda endorsement of Bush.

Any other good ones?

Thanks

1. How about today?
"We are a nation in danger," Mr. Bush said as he announced his position during an appearance with top administration national security figures in the White House Rose Garden.

2. You need to inform him of how fear is used as a political weapon

And tell him he's nothing but a big ass wuss for giving
up his freedom for the sake of the phoney promise of protection.
And I would also ask him how he could vote for someone who
let 9/11 happen.

3. Then why after 3 years do we have so many terror alerts?
Why does Bush keep emphasizing the danger we are in? Why does he have to keep telling us how dangerous it is, that we WILL be attacked.....if we are now safer.

9. Bush hasn't caught Osama. So, Osama actually prefers Bush
Instead of focusing on the real threat and destroying Osama's terrorist network, Bush invaded Iraq. Imagine if all the soldiers in Iraq and the money we've spent on Iraq would have been used to hunt and catch Osama and his terrorists.

In that sense, Bush is completely incompetent in his war on terror.
