Bush's America: 100 Percent Al-Qaida Free Since 2001 - HUMAN EVENTS

I do not quote Ms Coulter often, since she IS a bit of a firebrand, but she often has nuggets of truth mixed into her rhetoric. This is one of those times. If you want to read the rest, go there.

Ann, you have one of the best minds in the nation and constantly work over the 'blond' myth. You and the other Conservative Women are wonderful! Keep up the excellent work.

Bush's America: 100 Percent Al-Qaida Free Since 2001 - HUMAN EVENTS: "Al-Qaida is virtually destroyed, surprising even the CIA. Two weeks ago, The Washington Post reported: 'Less than a year after his agency warned of new threats from a resurgent al-Qaida, CIA Director Michael V. Hayden now portrays the terrorist movement as essentially defeated in Iraq and Saudi Arabia and on the defensive throughout much of the rest of the world, including in its presumed haven along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border.'

It's almost as if there's been some sort of 'surge' going on, as strange as that sounds.

Just this week, The New York Times reported that al-Qaida and other terrorist groups in Southeast Asia have all but disappeared, starved of money and support. The U.S. and Australia have been working closely with the Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia, sending them counterterrorism equipment and personnel.

But no one notices when 9/11 doesn't happen. Indeed, if we had somehow stopped the 9/11 attack, we'd all be watching Mohammed Atta being interviewed on MSNBC, explaining his lawsuit against the Bush administration. Maureen Dowd would be writing columns describing Khalid Sheik Mohammed as a 'wannabe' terrorist being treated like Genghis Khan by an excitable Bush administration."
