Nope, didn't say any such thing. I implied that someone is spinning the hell out of the actual statistics on terrorism to preserve Bush's "safer more secure" BS which is apparently the only thing that keeps him ahead in some recent polls.

Now, to your point:

1) Bush did kick over the beehive.

2) This did cause an increase in terrorism.

3) Claiming that it is either kick over the beehive or put your head in the sand (which I believe you did claim above, but I don't wish to put words in your mouth) is an example of the false dichotomy logical fallacy. Some of us believe there were other, more effective (and less deadly to Americans, Brits and all other nationalities) ways to combat terrorism. Furthermore, many active, high ranking, well informed experts in the military believe that kicking over the beehive significantly *detracted* from combating terrorism.

Which brings me back to my point - the statistics do not support Bush's claim that he has made us safer and more secure, so we'd better twist those statistics. "Damn the truth, full speed ahead towards re-election. Our ideologue supporters will believe anything we say if we get Limbaugh, Hannity, Scarborough, Hume, etc. to repeat it enough."

Jeez.
