Satisfaction at the President being held to account isn't the same as celebrating American failure. If you think "liberals" enjoy seeing US troops die because it makes Bush look bad then you're an idiot.

The most damaging "aid and comfort to the enemy" is from the arrogant and reckless policy decisions that seem to confirm the imperialist anti-Islamic rhetoric Bin Laden and others use to exacerbate existing tension and further support for their actions among moderate Muslims throughout the World.

Or more simply, actions speak louder than words.

And I suppose it was Bushs "reckless policy decisions" that led to 32 Terrorist attacks against the US and US interests between 1990 and 1999?

I believe there's a mix of well intended and ill intended US policy decisions that have influenced terror prior to 9/11. Certianly you don't argue that we have had a large hand in shaping the political landscape in the middle east do you?

But post 9/11 our actions have been much more rash and poorly planned. When it's obvious that certain actions will caused serious negative reaction one would think a little homework and objective thought would be called for, but sadly it's not to be.
