And no matter how much you want to spin it, it is a bad thing. Whose election will Al Qaeda try to influence next. Ours?? And will we respond the same way. It will be a sad day, when the world is ruled by appeasement.

Yup...bush's dismal handling of the runup to the war paying back dividends I am afraid. For those who think the UN is useless, or who think that we can exercise bush's my way or the highway approach (actually we credit bush with this, but the man is nothing more than a marionette) to world politics, and for those who would like to rush and say that the opinion of the world does not matter, let this stand as a singularly telling lesson. We have serious problems to solve and we need serious people to do it...

While Ted is filled with glee, the world should mourn, as the Spanish let Al Qaeda decide its elections.

Do you read what you post? Do you really believe that I am happy that 200 Spaniards died last Thursday? If you do, then you're the one who is sick and twisted?

BTW for two years now, the Spaniards made in clear in polls and demonstrations that they were opposed to their country invading Iraq. PM Aznar refused to listen much like Bush. His party pays the consequences for his hubris.

And no matter how much you want to spin it, it is a bad thing. Whose election will Al Qaeda try to influence next. Ours?? And will we respond the same way. It will be a sad day, when the world is ruled by appeasement.

And the world is better now? With terrorists attacks roughly every two months?
