The myth that Republicans appear strong on national security exploded on the planes on 9-11


The myth, that Republicans appear strong on national security, exploded on the planes that hit the world trade center on 9-11-2001.

The myth that Republicans appear strong on morality got flushed down the toilet in Larry Craig's stall in Minnesota in 2007.

1. The only thing that's going to get us real security is independence from foreign oil
That's the root of most of our big problems.

2. I agree...
And I simply cannot understand why we haven't made more of these points.

Especially 9/11...

It happened on their watch! They were responsible!

But I fear that it's too late now to make an issue of these...

5. Is that what you meant to say?
Republicans still appear to be strong on national security. But in reality, they are weak.

'The myth that Republicans appear strong...' ???

I am not a stickler for language. But your post is very confusing. Their strong appearance is not the myth. Their strength on national security is the myth.

6. That's why the events of 9/11 are so baffling.
How 19 "terrorists" so close to the Bush Family could avoid American intelligence and detection and invade the United States to kill 3,000 of our citizens is beyond belief.
