Americanlogic thinks its about time to lay out some history.

Here's the scenario: Let's say Americanlogic comes home from a day of work in the Fall of 2002 and hears President Bush, then somewhat competent, say this:

"Knowing these realities, America must not ignore the threat gathering against us. Facing clear evidence of peril, we cannot wait for the final proof -- the smoking gun -- that could come in the form of mushroom cloud." (Bush courtesy White House website transcript)

The words that stand out in that passage is "peril" and "mushroom cloud." These were uttered by the POTUS. The above words were not uttered by Bill Clinton, Al Gore, Hillary Clinton, the Democratic Party, James Carville, John McCain, John Kerry, Theresa Kerry Heinz, the Kerry daughters, the Gore children, John Podesta, Ronald Reagan, FDR, Harry Truman, Jimmy Carter, Gerald Ford, Alan Greenspan, Al Franken and so on.
