Does that need to be explained to the Republican base?
Or can you give me an alternative reason for why Republicans were unwilling to chastise Bush on his "not caring" where Osama was?
(Realistically, I think "blind partisan politics to the detriment of the nation" should be the acknowledged answer. But if you have a better one instead of trying to somehow blame Democrats for SOMETHING BUSH SAID, I'm all ears!  ) |
I think you're expressing 'blind partisan politics to the detriment of the nation', actually.
I find it very consistent and logical that the POTUS not allow himself to appear to be obsessed with capturing or killing one particular member of a terrorist organization that may or may not even still be alive.
It's very clear to me that Bush in his statement isn't willing to turn Bin Laden into any more of a messiah pariah than he already is.
Because of
your blind partisanship it wouldn't really matter what Bush said regarding Bin Laden. You're just unwilling to be honest with yourself.
Someone blasting a criticism primarily to score political points loses the right to cry 'blind partisan politics' when someone says 'hey, it's quite logical why he might say that'.
Meh ... it doesn't matter what I say, you're going to believe what ever they want you to.
