You're leaving out a vital fact and consideration!
Bush's timetable is only his next election. The timetable of present day terrorists and would-be terrorists is far longer. You see, all the present day terrorists need is behavior similar to what Bush has demonstrated in order to help them seed-grow, from a would-be crop, vast numbers of future terrorists. Indeed, they are rolling snake eyes to come, and eventually they believe Allah's dice will roll in this manner. When this happens, should it happen, things will become much worse than today; and, yes, more Americans will be less safe tomorrow.
I think Dean is correct in his conclision. You see, Dean is more apt to think deep; whereas Bush is caught, with his handlers, in only thinking shallow. And it's precisely this reason why Dean will have a capability of reaching out to those who haven't participated in presidential election politics. |
