you wouldn't want to try to backup some of her statements would you? She never would. She just pulled a kerry and whined about everyone picking on her.... building schools, building roads, building infrastructure, building day-care facilities, building health-care facilities I wouldn't describe AlQuida training camps the way she did above.... Tell us about these day care facilities and schools, and hospitals and other infrastructure.... LMAO

Ted Re...Considering your tasteless berrating of Tench, your senator Murray applauding Bin Laden Now this is what Murray actually said: "Murray said bin Laden has been "out in these countries for decades, building schools, building roads, building infrastructure, building day-care facilities, building health-care facilities, and the people are extremely grateful. We haven't done that." The senator then asked the students: "How would they look at us today if we had been there helping them with some of that rather than just being the people who are going to bomb in Iraq and go to Afghanistan?"" OBL did indeed build training camps in Afghanistan, and caves in the Tora Bora mountains. However, what OBL is really a hero for, in the middle east, and Afghanistan in particular, is first of all, standing up to Russia, in the eighties, and later, the US, with the bombing on 9/11. If aid was all it took to be loved in that region, the US would be the most loved country in the world, bar none. The US gives far more aid than any other country, in the world, and would make OBL look like a pipsqueak in that area. In addition, many of the charities, OBL was purported to run, were simply siphoning off millions, to support his terrorism, so not only was OBL a terrorist, he was a crook, who stole the charities blind, giving pennies, to the poor, while pocketing the majority. Sen Murray is dead wrong when she implies the US doesn't give as much aid as OBL to the people of the middle east, and as a senator, she should have known better. ONe of the writers in the article you posted said this. Another writer to the Post, who also referred to the Sept. 11 attacks, said Murray should step down. "Murray's comments about bin Laden absolutely epitomize the Democratic Party's blame-America philosophy," said Don DeVan of Manhattan. "The stupidity of her remarks make Sen. Trent Lott sound like a Ph.D. " He was right. That has been the dems philosophy before, during and since 9/11, as emphasized by Zell.
