Where in the World is Tom Daschle?
Hal went to see a speech by the former minority leader. His report is here. In it, there's a reminder why Daschle was a better leader than Harry Reid.
I was glad that Daschle had the fortitude to say that there are people who want to attack America regardless of the example it sets for the world. I think that there are just too few Democrats these days who will admit that. Bin Laden was bombing our soldiers even when Clinton was in office; Paris burns with the flames of Islamic radicalism at this very moment (Update: Apparently Dafydd ab Hugh is skeptical of this), despite their opposition to the Iraq War and support of Palestinian violence.Sure, Daschle is just as liberal as Reid. Unlike poor Harry, though, Daschle had the ability to communicate his liberal ideas in a way that didn't come across like connect the dots soundbites from DU.

B) "Paris burns with the flames of Islamic radicalism at this very moment...despite their opposition to the Iraq War and support of Palestinian violence."
woefully ignorant statement that shows a childlike simplicity to human events and relations....If you would like to discuss what it's like to be of African or Algerian heritage in France feel free to ask. But of course it's always about religion.
Tell me again why this isn't a religious war in your mind Slu? Little Green Footballs will rot your brain.
Love

Bill, I just had to edit an entire speech out of your comment. Please, just a link next time.
Also, I don't visit LGF all that often, so make an argument, not assumptions.
And yes, I am grouchy.
