Bush criticized for linking 9/11 and Iraq
Congressional Democrats said Preznit WarMonkey's repeated attempts last night to link the war in Iraq to the September 11 terrorist attacks rang hollow and did not constitute the plan to win the war that they said Bush needed to deliver.
The Snivelling Ninny mentioned the attacks five times during the 28-minute address Tuesday night, when he was supposed to be talking about solving the roiling, deadly fiasco in Iraq.
"The president's frequent references to the terrorist attacks of September 11 show the weakness of his arguments," House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi said. "He is willing to exploit the sacred ground of 9/11, knowing that there is no connection between 9/11 and the war in Iraq."
"The president's numerous references to September 11 did not provide a way forward in Iraq," Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid said. "They only served to remind the American people that our most dangerous enemy, namely Osama bin Laden, is still on the loose and al-Qaida remains capable of doing this nation great harm nearly four years after it attacked America."
Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean slammed Bush for failing "to show the same courage our troops and their families show every day."
"Facing an historic opportunity for leadership, George Bush turned to the darkness of divisiveness, attempting to garner support for his failed policies by pandering to fear, rather than inspiring us with a plan for hope," Dean said.
"I think the president was giving them same old, same old," Independent pollster John Zogby said.
