Terror attacks vs the BCS

January 21, 2009 by William K. Wolfrum 

Listening to Bush (falsely) claim that following the time he didn’t keep the U.S. safe, he kept the U.S. safe for seven years, I was struck by how terror attacks are like the Bowl Championship Series. The press will forgive an early loss. It’s an imperfect system, of course.

    If there’s any silver lining to this continued wingnut ass-hattery (see: Bush, G.W.; no further attacks, mythical lack thereof), it’s that, should the unthinkable happen in the next couple of years, the reverent right will be sure to remain consistent, grant President Obama a similar national security mulligan, & insist that the attacks were surely the result of failures by the previous president.

    Wait, what?

    Yeah, if the U.S. wasn’t attacked, he wouldn’t have had a starting date for keeping the nation safe. It was a pre-9/11 mentality. Back then it wasn’t something you had to point out.
