Edwards' logical dyslexia

David Limbaugh:

...

Toward the beginning, moderator Wolf Blitzer asked Edwards to clarify his statement that the "war on terror is a bumper sticker, not a plan," in light of the freshly thwarted terrorist plot to bomb JFK airport and the surrounding area in Queens, N.Y. Does Edwards really believe, asked Wolf, that "the U.S. is not at war with terrorists?"

Though he never answered the question directly, Edwards said -- unconvincingly -- he would use every means available to "find terrorists where they are" and "stop them." But he is sticking by his position that the "war on terror" has just been a bumper sticker and political slogan used by President Bush to justify every nefarious act he has committed, from "the ongoing war in Iraq, Guantanamo, Abu Ghraib, spying on Americans, torture. "

How can we possibly believe Edwards would do everything in his power to hunt down terrorists, since we know many of them are in Iraq and he is proudly advocating abandoning our mission there? Oh, yes, that's right, it's just a civil war, forgive me. Talk about a bumper sticker slogan.

More offensively, Edwards' answer suggests that Bush was behind any and all bad things that might have happened at Gitmo and Abu Ghraib. It implies he truly does spy on innocent American citizens and directs that our prisoners be tortured. And why not? These charges fire up the kook base, just like Edwards' channeling of an unborn baby girl apparently fired up the jury in one of his legendary personal injury cases in 1985.

...

He goes on to criticize Edwards' suggestion that America has to prove that we are immoral. Edwards gets to this logical leap by assuming that all the criticisms of the Bush administration's methods in fighting our enemies are valid. It is a bad assumption based on Democrat and enemy spin more that fact or logic.
