This was apparently of preeminent importance to the 'soccer mom' demo that existed at that time.<br /><br />The media was pretty sure that eventually there would be a successful terrorist operation, and they were going to be ready with a <i>Bush failed!</i> campaign that would bring him low.<br /><br />When Katrina hit, and images of suffering negroes presented themselves for ready exploitation, the whole advanced narrative starting spilling out, and the substitution of a natural disaster for adherents of the Religion of Peace was accomplished smoothly and efficiently to great effect. The rest is history. Pelosi's, Reid's, and Obama's history.<br /><br />I wonder what the advanced successful terror attack story is now? Or did they just use it in France?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
