Bush: Ignore the Bloggers, Listen to the Terrorists

Washington, D.C. (AHN) - In a recent address held at the Heritage Foundation, U.S. President George W. Bush insisted that people need to take the words of the terrorists seriously, and not listen to the demands and the protests of blog writers.

The president urged that the words spoken by terrorists must be taken seriously, as there can be no room for leniency in a time of terrorist activity.

Quoted from the live broadcast, Mr. Bush continued to say that the nation must spend more time listening to the messages and threats of Osama bin Laden, and "less time responding to the demands of MoveOn.org bloggers and Code Pink protesters."

Mr. Bush said that the terrorists aim to establish a totalitarian Islamic empire, and that they move along the belief of refusing compromise or dialogue with "infidels" , with Bush saying that the U.S. has been included in that list.

Likening the threats of bin Laden to the warnings sent out by historic figures such as Lenin and Hitler, Mr. Bush said that unlike how the public responded to the mentioned leaders, the people must listen to bin Laden.

"Some in Congress are behaving as if America is not at war," MSNBC quoted the president. "In a time of war, it is vital for the president to have a full national security team in place."

Mr. Bush also called for Congress to turn more of their time towards funding plans for the war in Iraq, and less time planning for other causes such as children's health care - something for which he accused Congress of overspending.

Again stating that "we will fight [the terrorists] overseas so we do not have to fight them here at home," President Bush said that the only way to defeat terrorism is to "advance freedom as the alternative to radicalism."

The address was delivered to an audience of Washington conservatives.
