As horrible and sad a day this is for the Brits...
There are equally horrible and sad things happening on almost a daily basis in Iraq.

So after the MSM has spun this to dust, I frankly don't see this as helping moron* in any way shape or form. If we had a real media, they would jump on the fact that we are now much much less safe than moron* proposes we are.

Also on another rant, timing is everything. I find it interesting just when matt cooper, yesterday, states that he's going to testify, this bombing happens. I believe this was a LIHOP situation. The admin always loves to blather on and on about increased "chatter" on the internet when they have to keep the publics eye off the ball, but when something big is about to go down on one of their own: aka rove indictment, they suddenly keep mum on any sort of "chatter", so we are less expectant of something to happen.
Or like they also have stated in the past, usually the chatter dies down just before something big and we are told about that to, but funny, nothing, either way, was said to the public, this time. Funny how that works, huh?

I just don't trust these bastards even if they told me the sky was blue, I would still look up to check.

2. I'm going to agree with you -
I don't think this is a Bonus in any way for the Bushmeister. I know some people feel this can only help him, he gets to be the "strong president" and all that, sacrifice more personal rights, everyone will line up behind him and so on.

I just don't see how it can be spun as an asset. It's just a colossal failure, and we know who caused it.

A particularly damning statement by Einstein, "we're fighting them over there so we won't have to fight them at home". That's got to be infuriating right now.
