Articles like this one from the New York Post all serve to underscore the problems with ideologues.
All the neocon fanatics still trot out the old logical fallacy used during Bush's '04 election that since Bush has been in office we've not been attacked by terrorists.
Like Bush is somehow responsible for something not happening.
Here's the same logic but in a form that shows how stupid and idiotic it is:
Ever since my birth, there has not been a Spanish Inquisition. Therefore, my birth was responsible for preventing the dreaded Spanish Inquisition.
See how stupid it is? Well, claiming Bush is responsible for a negative is the same.
There's a reason ideologues are anti-intellectual: Because their justifications and rationales WILL NOT STAND UP TO REASON!
People are finally waking up from their dream of a conservative America.
Thanks GOD.
