What Avedon said, in response to another trivial emission from Frank Rich:

Why accept the Rovian definition of "safe" to mean only that there were no further physical attacks on American soil by foreign agents? Those were never the only dangers facing us, and in truth the policies carried out by this administration have made our daily lives far more perilous than they were before. Bush is not solely responsible for every one of the nasty things we are facing, but he was in a position to either ameliorate them or exacerbate them, and he did the latter on steroids. Our economy was vulnerable, and he made sure the exposure was greater than it had to be. Our friends in the world were many, but under his "leadership" they have been dwindling almost to none.
And Katrina wasn't something outside of our safety - the danger of destruction to an American city is just as real whether it comes from a lethal combination of bad weather, poor planning, neglected infrastructure and corruption or from Al Qaeda. And how safe are we when the National Guard have been pulled out of our cities to have their time and lives wasted in Iraq? Bush's response to 9/11 seems to have been to try to remove all of our first-responders from where they would be needed.

Nor did Bush wait until 9/11 to start endangering America - from the very first, he was wrecking our diplomatic relations, undercutting our economy and our infrastructure, and most of all destroying the true underpinnings of our free country - the United States Constitution. The Iraq war alone has cost us so much money that we may never recover, and that's without the rest of the financial disaster that three decades of deregulation and neglect of oversight are costing us.

Bingo. Steroid-poppin' fresh Bingo.
