"We did not, however, anticipate that those on the Bush team would dare to argue that a vote for John Kerry would be a vote for Al Qaeda."

How can they be so naive? They did what ever it took to win over Gore, and they are doing the same with Kerry. Whether or not their statements have any basis in any form of consensual reality is not even an issue. Heck, I expect them to pick up on Steve's line that Kerry is engaging in sedition just by the fact he is running against the incumbent...

This is despicable politics. It's not just polarizing - it also undermines the efforts of the Justice Department and the Central Intelligence Agency to combat terrorists in America. Every time a member of the Bush administration suggests that Islamic extremists want to stage an attack before the election to sway the results in November, it causes patriotic Americans who do not intend to vote for the president to wonder whether the entire antiterrorism effort has been kidnapped and turned into part of the Bush re-election campaign. The people running the government clearly regard keeping Mr. Bush in office as more important than maintaining a united front on the most important threat to the nation.

Despicable politics? I am tired of the WA Post's naiveté. What the Bushies currently are saying in public is what they think and say in private. Desperation to win has brought this issue to the surface for public dissemination.

And I firmly believe that there is a lot more from where that came. The WA Post needs to get clear with whom they are dealing. Maybe they are too close to the 'beltway'.
