I'm a lot less concerned about how al Qaeda feels about our election choice than I am about how our election choice feels about kicking Islamist ass. And not just al Qaeda, either.

The articles on Spain, the Phillipines, and others make one thing very clear: standard "negotiation" and "consensus" approaches don't work with people whose sole goal is your extinction.

Did you even get the significance of how long ago these plans in Spain had been made? Does it ever sink in that 9/11 was being planned while Bush was still governor of Texas?

This isn't about Bush. Or Gore, or Clinton, or Kerry. It's about having a worldview that recognizes that this is about the survival of the West. And I'm not seeing that from a lot of liberals.
