Lieberman Logic: YAY! THEY ARE SLAUGHTERING US!

Lieberman Logic: The more they kill us, the more we must be winning. LIEBERMAN: Well, two parts. Here’s the point: We’re in a war. The surge strategy, which is just beginning to be fully implemented, has worked. It has reduced sectarian deaths, particularly in Baghdad where we’re focused. They ticked back up in the last month. Why did they do that? Because our enemies, the insurgents and Al Qaida — insurgents particularly supported by Iran — see us winning, and they’re doing desperate things. More of them are prepared to blow themselves up to kill Iraqis or American soldiers. Honestly, I'm not sure what I can even say about this. I love this kind of thing...its so wonderfully self-proving. I remember talk after 9/11 procedures had started to be put in place, and our right erroded. There was no way out of the logical hole. a-no attackes happen: the methods must be working. ramp them up. screw the constitution. We must maintain safety! b-attacks happen: we aren't doing enough! ramp it up! screw the constitution! This is war! Tags:LIEBERMAN Iraq
