Almost nothing ticks me off more than "We need Bush/Republicans to...

protect us from the terrorists!"

I saw an example of it on Fox News one day (Fox News of course). This yokel was standing outside the set of Fox and Fiends (Friends) with a sign that said "Vote for Bush because only he can protect us from the terrorists", or something to that effect.

Bush and the Republicans will protect us alright.

Just like they protected us on 9/11.

Just like they protected from some guy who passing out anthrax in the mail.

Just like they protected us from the D.C. and Virginia Snipers.

And just like they protected over a 1000 young men and women and Iraqis from Terrorists in Iraq.

With 'protectors' like Bush and the Republicans in Government, who needs terrorists?

1. We need protection from Republicans

And Republicans need protection from themselves.

It would be a sad irony that Bush's anti-stem cell stance today segues into a future where they find his diminishing mental faculties could benefit from stem cell therapy?

2. Had their chance

What about them ignoring every tell about an impending terrorist attack? Where was the protection then?

* Phoenix memo
* foreign intelligence
* San Diego based Al Queda cells
