No Replacement For Displacement

Reason to vote Republican number 1026

Senator Patty Murray D(Washington):

"We've got to ask, why is this man [Osama bin Laden] so popular around the world?

...

He's been out in these countries for decades, building schools, building roads, building infrastructure, building day care facilities, building health care facilities, and the people are extremely grateful. We haven't done that.

How would they look at us today if we had been there helping them with some of that rather than just being the people who are going to bomb in Iraq and go to Afghanistan?

Remember this when someone talks about Trent Lott's gaffe. You expect to hear these sort of quotes out of Robert Fisk or some Hollywood bubblehead, not out of a US Senator.
