cyranoOkay, I'm getting cranky listening to Certain Political Parties miscast the events in Spain.
Spain didn't pull out of Iraq because of the train bombing. The bombings undoubtably had an effect on the vote, but mostly because the government lied to the people and the people didn't like it. (Hrmmmmm.)
Spain pulled out of Iraq because the people who did win the election had been saying for months that being in Iraq was a bad idea and they wanted to pull the troops out.
However, I will say that I think the Phillipine government's decision to withdraw troops in hopes of getting their hostages released was an unfortunate decision and will probably end up getting more people killed.
I think a terrorist attack in the US this summer would have an effect on the November elections. And I think it would push G-Bu into the White House. And I also think that's what Al Qaeda wants. I also also think that's not what I want.
