It's nice that Bush told the world tonight that we invaded Iraq in order to turn it into a battleground and shooting gallery between us and terrorists. The better to keep such activities off US soil. This must be the ultimate in NOT IN MY BACKYARD! Whatever happened to 45 minutes to strike and drones and alumnium tubes and sarin and anthrax and african uranium and portabello clouds?

Claiming that the Iraq war has kept us "safe from terrorism for the last three years" since 9/11 is like saying that fighting the Vietnam war kept the US "safe from Communism." The preponderance of the evidence directly contradicts Bush. To paraphrase a recent Rumsfeld statement: "We can't seem to kill or capture the terrorists in Iraq as fast as they are being recruited." Iraq has become a training ground and grand motivation to kill Americans for jihadists all over the Middle East. Bushboy has made us much less safe and should be impeached for lies and incompetence!
