"they were asking about THE CENTRAL POINT - that liberals have been critical of Bush's war against Al Qaeda" Sorry, but that was not the point, not even close. I just watched that exchange again on Fox (late night rerun). Your assertion is completely bogus. The point they attempted to make was to challenge Lowry that no liberals ever said we should have preemptively attacked Al Qaeda. Colmes & the other liberal (Bob Beckel) were in full attack mode on that one debatable point to the complete exclusion of the overall theme that Lowry made that, <font size=4>"The image of the pre-9/11 Democrats created during the past several weeks is a fantasy, the opportunistic canard of a party only willing to be hardheaded in retrospect and when it serves the cause of damaging Bush."<font size=3> In fact, to assert that any serious liberal would, on television no less, claim there was absolutely no basis that liberals have been critical of Bush's war against terrorism is ludicrous (Bush is in a war on terrorism, not against Al Qaeda). Liberals have been hysterically critical of Bush's war against terrorism. They have been treacherous in their attacks. They have been willing to lie, distort, revise history, aid & abet the enemy, almost anything as long as it appears to hurt the Bush Admin. That's a fact. And for anyone who has paid attention to politicians & the liberal media since 9/11, to pretend that this is not reality, is due to them being blindly partisan. Oh, and if you have paid any attention to the 9/11 investigation, there are plenty of liberals who are making the case that Bush failed to take action against Bin Laden pre 9/11 - IOW, preemptively attack Al Qaeda in Afghanistan. Clarke was one of the liberals who said we should have bombed Afghanistan pre - 9/11. Lowry made the point that many liberals now hold that testimony up as gospel simply because it appears to hurt Bush. It is certainly your right to continue to continue to pretend that you actually made a relevant point.
