Where would George Bush be today in the polls without 9/11?

[Veggie Meathead]

Tell me what would he run on? Name one accomplishment of this administration that people can base their vote on? The conomy has gone south, medical care is a cruel joke,the social security system has ben intentionally bankrupted, the budegt and trade deficits have hit the stratosphere-----.Is there anything that this reverse Midas can leave unaffected?

1. His head would be rotting on a poll.

He was headed for impeachment before bushoini inc MIHOP.

[Vincardog]

2. Ashcroft and co would turn out the KKK for some cross burning

and created another "crisis" They have nothing to offer but FEAR

[KurtNYC]

3. Would have used Flight 587 or the anthrax attacks

to get to pretty much the same place we are now.

4. Impeached

[Skittles]

5. 1026 dead soldiers

*shakes head*

6. The Reverse Should Be The Case.

It should be the reverse.

Consider that less than nine weeks after Bush was briefed about
surface to air missiles at a G8 Summit in Genoa, Italy, Mohammad Atta
slammed his hi-jacked jet into the World Trade Center. Italian
security was so concerned about hi-jacked jets being used for attacks
they decided on SAMs.

Less than nine weeks prior to 911 ..........

However, when informed of the first crash in NY Bush never made a
connection. Any normal mind would have. Any other leader would have
considered the possibility.

Even worse is the fact that he was warned over and over again about
the probability of al Queida attacks in the US during the summer of
2001.

He never made the connection.................

Kerry should pose this question publicly - "Mr Bush, when informed
of the first crash into the WTC, did it even remotely occur to you
that it might possibly be a terrorist act?"

Later as Bush walked into the school, where the now infamous film was
made of him in a dumbfounded stupor, he was overheard by several
journalists to jest "boy, thats one bad pilot".

Are these the actions of a leader ? To jest about a devastating
plane crash, where he had to know hundreds if not thousands were
killed ? To tell his National Security Adviser that he simply did
not want to be bothered with the warnings during the summer of 2001-

"I'm tired of swatting flies"

If the Kerry campaign or Truth Out fails to emphasize this then the
truth about the performance of this dunce in the WH will never really
be comprehended by the electorate.

The reverse should be the case as far as 911 and Bush's ratings go.
