So it seems the line that has the DEMS' panties bunched is "some attack the president for attacking the terrorists" (paraphrased). This goes back to the 6 month argument of whether the war in Iraq is part of the war on terror. If you believe it is, then this line is roughly true (at least close enough for politics, and certainly closer than "BUSH LIED"). If you don't, well . . . your panties are twisted.
Billmore had it right on this one a few posts up.

Actually, I agree that the new RNC ad is within the pale for what now passes as politics, and should not be the subject of any real uproar -- and should be readily countered in ads by the at-least-equally-fair response that "No, Democrats are attacking Bush because he was so incompetent in attacking the terrorists, and had a completely inadequate plan for finishing the fights in Afghanistan and Iraq -- which continue to cost us American lives and boatloads of cash."
However, Bilmore did not "have it right' above, because no Dem ad to my knowledge has ever said ANY of those things (except perhaps to imply that Cheney is a thief). Bilmore has apparently been so scarred by his Minnesota experiences, post-2000, that he has jumpd down into the trenches with Ton Delay.
