The President’s speech was right on last night, and absolutely true. How do I know? Because it sent Harry Reid over the edge and Senator Kennedy to the “medicinal cabnet”, and the rest of the usual Democrat suspects to the microphones to piss and moan:

“Senators Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts and Charles E. Schumer of New York, who heads the Democrats‚Äô Senate campaign drive, denounced Mr. Bush‚Äôs speech almost immediately.

Mr. Kennedy said Mr. Bush “should be ashamed of using a national day of mourning” to justify his Iraq policy, while Mr. Schumer said, “You do not commemorate the tragedy of 9/11 by politicizing it.”

And Representative Nancy Pelosi of California, the House Democratic leader, sharply criticized Mr. Bush today. “On the fifth anniversary of Sept. 11, President Bush continued to try to justify the invasion of Iraq by drawing nonexistent links to the 9/11 attacks,” Ms. Pelosi said. “To try to make partisan gain out of such tragedy dishonors all those we lost on Sept. 11.”

“In fact,” Ms. Pelosi went on, “the war in Iraq has made our effort to defeat terrorism and terrorists more difficult. Last night’s speech demonstrated that the president will go to any lengths to distract attention from his failures in Iraq, which have diverted focus from the war on terrorism.”

Although mid-September is not always a good time to predict what will drive the voters to the polls in November, the back-and-forth between the White House and its Democratic critics makes it abundantly clear that terrorism and the war in Iraq — which Mr. Bush says are linked and Democrats insist should not be — will be bitterly argued in the weeks before the elections.

There were additional signals as the afternoon wore on. Senator Harry Reid of Nevada, the Democratic minority leader, said he stood by his initial reaction that Mr. Bush’s speech was “partisan,” no matter how the White House described it.

“I think that we had a wonderful opportunity last night to listen to the president bring the country together,” Mr. Reid said. “He didn’t do that.”

Reid you’re a moron, but that’s actually being nice. The only thing that has attempted to tear this country apart over the last five years is Al Qaeda and YOUR party, and quite frankly it’s really getting hard to tell the difference between the two.

Today Democrats were clamouring for “equal time”, in that everytime the President of the United States speaks they want a pulpit to rebut him. Sorry, ain’t going to fly. The President didn’t “politicize” the speech last night, but pissed you all off by telling the truth that Iraq IS a part of the war on terror, the President had the “audacity” to tell YOU that YOU are full of crap for saying it isn’t.

If anyone politicized the week of 9/11 rememberances it was you Democrats with your “Path to 9/11″ hissy fit – firing off letters threatening to pull FCC licenses, and generally acting like the jackasses you are. The American public is picking up the message loud and clear as polls are beginning totake seismic shifts away from your “doom and gloom/cut and run” picture of America.

The Path to 9/11 showed full well what you guys do when you have the reigns of power, and they want nothing to do with YOUR type of leadership in these dangerous times.

The fact is that Democrats can see it all slipping away again, because in the end they have NO core, NO message, NO backbone, NO character, NO message, NO hope, and NO victory in November.

More reacts: Sister Toldjah with more examples of Democrat hypocrisy.
