In the mind of pollster Frank Luntz, September 11th gives the nation a chance to praise George W. Bush and Dick Cheney.

Appearing on Your World with Neil Cavuto on Friday afternoon, Luntz expressed his concern about America’s lack of optimism in the last decade. Then, the Fox analysis shared a controversial sentiment by speaking in positive terms about the the previous Administration despite the attack happening on their watch.

“I don’t think this date is a positive,” Luntz said. “Yes, it allows us to look back and say ‘We haven’t been hit.’ Yes, it allows us to appreciate George Bush and Dick Cheney for keeping us safe. But in the end, it reminds us that we are vulnerable, and that hurts our confidence.”

4. What a difference a day makes

If it weren't for the Internet, Luntz & crew could almost pretend that Katrina never happened on Bush's post-9/11 "watch."

5. Mr. Upisdown

Somewhere, there is a parallel universe where PETA* is protesting the use of Frank Luntz and Grover Norquist as research subjects in the development of new pesticides.

7. Luntz is the Republican Goebbels

Luntz should be tried for treason along with the rest of the Bush crew. If there were any justice he would be hanged at The Hague.

Mr. "Government Takeover" himself being interviewed by the master of the Loaded Question.

Two snake-oil "wordsmiths" in the same pit.

Oh how AMAZING it must be to control the message.

Luntz credits the sinking of the Titanic with allowing us to appreciate the ship's captain and crew for keeping the passengers safe from all subsequent icebergs.
