Catfight Between Clinton and The Breck Girl

J.J. Jackson* | June 9, 2007 

The claws are out:

NEW YORK (AP) - Presidential contender John Edwards on Thursday disputed Democratic rival Hillary Rodham Clinton’s claim that the U.S. is safer since Sept. 11 and contended GOP candidate Rudy Giuliani will never win if he embraces President Bush’s policies.Speaking on the New Yorkers’ home turf - and not far from Ground Zero - Edwards dismissed Clinton’s comments in Sunday’s debate in which she said the nation is safer now that it was before the terrorist attacks. Clinton’s other top rival, Sen. Barack Obama, also has challenged her claim.

“Today, as a result of what George Bush has done, we have more terrorists and fewer allies,” Edwards said at a news conference. “There was no group called al-Qaida in Iraq before this president’s war in Iraq.” 

Allies for the sake of allies is meaningless. His thoughts are nothing more than sound bites cobbled together. Whether or not there was “al-Qaida in Iraq” before we FINISHED the job of 1991 after Saddam Hussein violated the ceasefire is ultimately irrelevant to whether or not we are “safer”.

I’ll disagree with John Edwards, whose brains are apparently all in his perfectly styled hair. Before September 11th groups of Muslims wanting to learn how to fly, but not land planes was not questioned. Before September 11th groups of Muslims staking out landmarks was not questioned. Before September 11th groups of Muslims acting suspiciously was not questioned. Before September 11th groups of Muslims were not being arrested for planning terrorist attacks.
Today they are.

And I might like to remind Captain Hair that September 11th happened before we went into Iraq.

Yes, we certainly are safer. Not “safe” completely. But definitely safer because we are more vigilant.
So stop thinking with your hair.
