GOP terror scam was exposed months ago...and here it is!
Here we go: Al Qaeda is in the US....duh! They have the CAPACITY to attack! Duh! Now, here's the clinker: THEY WANT TO INFLUENCE THE ELECTIONS IN THE US THE WAY THEY DID IN SPAIN!!! Hey, - darn clever, these Repugs:

Flashback to last May, when this started. In case you missed it:

A VOTE FOR OSAMA
A GOP ELECTION SCAM
TvNewsLies.org

“...the Republicans have absolutely NO OTHER ISSUE on which to run. None.”


THE PROBLEM

This is not the way it was supposed to be, not by a long shot. By now, George W. Bush was supposed to be a shoo-in for a second term in the White House. It really looked as if they had it all: Karl Rove was the master political strategist, the Neocons were the master war planners, and Dick Cheney was the master puppeteer of all time. Together, they would clear a path to victory for George Bush, the strong war candidate, for George Bush the highly popular candidate, and for George Bush, the absolutely unbeatable candidate. Theirs were the best laid plans, for sure. But they went badly astray....

THE SCAM

What to do? What to do? You know that these people will not go quietly into the night. You know they will come up with a strategy to counter their failures. You just know it. And they did.

The plan is simple and clever, and was inspired by the tragic train bombings in Madrid that brought down a pro war government. It relies heavily on the fear factor that has been the calling card of this administration for three years. It also relies solidly on another given: the cooperation and complicity of the corporate media.

2. Let everybody know this
If there is an attack, everybody including terrorists know that Bush will be re elected. So if there is an attack it's safe to assume that's what the terrorists want.

4. I don't agree...
Bush is campaigning on the ridiculous premise that he has made us SAFER, and has made the world safer. Yeah, right. If there is an attack, he has failed again, as he has with everything else. Why would anyone elect a failure?

5. At this point, it doesn't matter what they say.

If there is an attack, he's failed. If there's not, they lied. They're just trying to do a CYA because he's running on stay the course, we're safer, don't change teams, etc. They've backed themselves into this corner.

Unfortunately, Kerry's going to have enough of a mess to work on and the B-Team is likely planting bombs around every corner for him to take care of come inauguration (sp) day.
