Something Dumbya said at his press conference fiasco...
from the transcript:

http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2004/04/20040413-20.html

"One of the interesting things people ask me, now that we're asking questions, is, can you ever win the war on terror? Of course, you can. That's why it's important for us to spread freedom throughout the Middle East. Free societies are hopeful societies. A hopeful society is one more likely to be able to deal with the frustrations of those who are willing to commit suicide in order to represent a false ideology. A free society is a society in which somebody is more likely to be able to make a living. A free society is a society in which someone is more likely to be able to raise their child in a comfortable environment, and see to it that that child gets an education."

In other words, he's saying that people in free societies won't commit acts of terror.

Funny, but some pictures keep coming into my mind...

1. very good point, Delano...
Somehow the War on Terra does not seem to include the likes of Timothy McVeigh...
That's one of the ways we know it's a sham!!
Not that I recommend it, but why isn't Terry Nichols an "Enemy Combatant" just like Padilla? What's the difference?

2. We were a free society on 9/11
It's a bullshit statement.
