Clip from RRN - Sadly, the animals who killed Michael Berg's son did know EXACTLY what they were doing, murder is their business. So why does Nick Berg's father blame George Bush instead of the evil people who killed his son? Well, if you blame terrorists and not George Bush for the evil that befalls this country in general or to your family in particular, it almost requires that you support doing things to alleviate the threat that a lot of people on the left (and that describes Michael Berg) are very uncomfortable with. Things like the Patriot Act, invading Afghanistan and Iraq, interrogating people at Gitmo, unleashing the CIA and special forces around the world, and vocally standing up and criticizing the beliefs of people from a different culture and different religion from most of us. But if you blame George Bush, well, then you can keep doing what you've always done -- complain about Republicans, try to elect more Democrats, and just ignore the real problems and hope they go away.
