Drunky sez: if you vote Democratic, the terrorists win

You know, I shouldn't be surprised at the rhetoric, especially when it comes from the Douchebag-in-Chief himself, Drunky McStagger. Yet the forthrightness of it is what's really startling.

According to Drunky, if a Democrat is elected president in November, we should expect another terrorist attack on the U.S.:

Q Mr. President, turning to the biggest issue of all, Iraq. I wonder if you -- various people and various candidates talk about pulling out next year. If we were to pull out of Iraq next year, what's the worst that could happen, what's the doomsday scenario?

THE PRESIDENT: Doomsday scenario of course is that extremists throughout the Middle East would be emboldened, which would eventually lead to another attack on the United States.

The biggest issue we face is -- it's bigger than Iraq -- it's this ideological struggle against cold-blooded killers who will kill people to achieve their political objectives. Iraq just happens to be a part of this global war. Iraq is the place where al Qaeda and other extremists have made their stand -- and they will be defeated. They'll be defeated through military action, but they'll also be defeated as this young democracy takes hold. They can't stand to live in a free society, that's why they try to fight free societies.

The United States pulling out of Iraq or pulling out of the Middle East or not maintaining a forward presence would send all kinds of signals throughout the Middle East. And it would shake everybody's nerves, and it would embolden the very same people that we're trying to defeat.

That's just atrocious. Seriously. If there are any legitimate journalists left, they ought to be ashamed of this mockery.

Sure, the question isn't specifically about the Democratic candidates, but it's obviously thinly veiled subtext, especially when you consider that the interviewer was Mike Allen of the wingnutty blog Politico. And even if the question was vague, the answer sure wasn't.

The GOP playbook, if anyone had any lingering doubts, will be a healthy dose of racism/sexism (depending on the Democratic nominee) garnished with plenty of fear-mongering. Might as well get used to it now.
