Republicans Ruled

Some times you run across just the right insight with just the right words used in just the right order. I just ran across this brief letter to the editor in a back issue of Time and have to post it here. You know how it is - I read the letter, slapped myself in the head and said, out-loud, "I could'a had a V-8."

Giuliani and the Republicans keep trying to convince us that only they are tough enough to fight terrorists and keep us safe. I seem to recall that on 9/11 the terrorists boarded planes in a state that had a Republican Governor and did their worst damage in a city that had a Republican Mayor and a state that had a Republican Governor - all while a Republican was in the White House.

And, I might add, while Republicans controlled the Congress.
