“See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda.”
- George W. Bush, May 24, 2005
Mr. Bush defended the “War on Terror” yesterday in South Carolina — what an enlightening speech! Did you know that al Qaeda is in Iraq now? And they’re the ones who attacked us on 9/11? And they’re in Iraq?!
Number of times Al Qaeda is mentioned in yesterday’s speech: 95.
Number of times Iraq is mentioned: 104.
A little heavier on the Iraq’s, yes, but he balances them with 9 mentions of September 11th.
“The facts are that al Qaida terrorists killed Americans on 9/11, they’re fighting us in Iraq and across the world, and they are plotting to kill Americans here at home again. Those who justify withdrawing our troops from Iraq by denying the threat of al Qaida in Iraq and its ties to Osama bin Laden ignore the clear consequences of such a retreat. If we were to follow their advice, it would be dangerous for the world — and disastrous for America. We will defeat al Qaida in Iraq.”
Yep.
