Senator Angry Old Prick's familiars are praying for a terrorist attack....
...on the nation prior to the election. Seems the conventional wisdom is that this will help the pending Republicant debacle. The fuckwad below didn't just make an off-the-cuff remark, it was an invitation to terrorists to initiate an attack. Oh, by the way, why are these advisers usually named Black or White or Prince? And shouldn't they be renamed Douchebag, Scumbag and Asswipe?

FRESNO, California (CNN) -- An adviser to Sen. John McCain apologized Monday for saying a terrorist attack on the United States would be "a big advantage" for the Republican presidential candidate.

McCain said he "strenuously" disagreed with the remark.

Charlie Black, a senior adviser to McCain, said he "deeply regrets" his comments to Fortune magazine.

"They were inappropriate," Black told reporters at a fund-raising event in California. "I recognize that John McCain has devoted his entire life to protecting his country."

2. Well, I guess someone from the republican party was bond to invite the terrorist to the US.

It was inevitable. The republican's problem is that pre 9/11 mindset. They just don't understand that terrorism is a bad thing.

3. George W. Bush has had 7 years to prepare this country from another terrorist attack.
It wasn't the Democrats...it wasn't Barack Obama...George W. Bush has been the President ever since 09/11. I wouldn't be too goddamned anxious for another terrorist attack if I were the Republicans. They have been in charge of this government, they have been the ones responsible for defending this country. If there IS, God help us, another terrorist attack, any blame will fall on THEM.

4. I have no idea why another terrorist attack would help them
Wouldn't it prove that they HAVEN'T kept the country safer?
