WASHINGTON, Aug. 10 /U.S. Newswire/ -- The following release was issued today by the Republican National Committee:

Earlier today, Senator Harry Reid and Senator John Kerry attacked the administration's efforts in the War on Terror. Below is a response from RNC Chairman Ken Mehlman.

"On a day when American authorities are working with our allies to stop a global terror plot, instead of focusing on political attacks, we should focus on the fact that we are at war and need every tool to win the War on Terror. If Harry Reid had his way and killed the Patriot Act and ended the Terrorist Surveillance Program, authorities would be less able to uncover terror plots. If John Kerry had his way and we surrendered Iraq to the terrorists, Islamic jihadists would be strengthened and even more dangerous in the future. The main lesson of today is America needs to continue working with our allies and stay on the offense in the Global War on Terror."

3. What does criticizing Bush have to do with stopping terror?

NOTHING. DHS and the intelligence agencies will continue to work and operate no matter even if Bush was impeached. They are all working on counterterrorism, and how much we claim Bush sucks has no effect on that.

4. No effect?

Ummm, what did Bush do in Aug of '01 with that PDB ? Nothing and so neither did the intelligence community.
