Is it just me, or does the current news of Al Queda looking to attack America again seem just a little too convenient? I mean, I assume that they’re always looking for a way to hit us again, but to have it make “the news,” during an election year?
Maybe I’m being cynical, but this just seems to be a bit too convenient for the Republicans and it’s a bad idea if that’s what they’re thinking.
I know we’re facing an ongoing threat but let’s keep that perspective. Dragging out that threat when it’s politically convenient is even more cynical, and it’s insulting.
Much worse, from my perspective, is Admiral Fallon being forced to step down. A smart guy who’s served his country well for a very long time; it looks very much like he’s been pushed for suggesting that actively picking a fight with Iran might not be the smartest idea ever.
