Regarding President Bush's speech on Sept. 11, 2006:
Question: What do al Qaeda, Osama bin Laden, Syria, Iran, Palestine, and the Taliban all have in common with the Hussein regime in Iraq?
Answer: All of the above have been documented as either using or supporting the use of terrorism in order to achieve their political objectives, including genocide.
Given that 9/11 represents the climax of an escalating terrorist attack on America and American interests, then doesn't it make sense that President Bush would focus his remarks on the current status of global terrorism?
That's not playing politics; that's dealing with the real world.
Compare that to the darling of the left, Kieth Olberman, who wants us to stop spending money on the war, and finish the 9/11 memorial instead. To me, there can be no more fitting memorial to those whose lives were taken on 9/11 than the absolute destruction of terrorism as a political force.
