DOT atrocities?

Question

George Bush is held responsible for about 4,000 dead Americans in Iraq.

Michael Brown is held responsible for 1,836 deaths from Katrina the sixth largest hurricane ever recorded.

Michael Chertoff, even though it's Karen Hughes' job in her role as, undersecretary of state for public diplomacy is held responsible for US image abroad. 0 deaths as far as I know.

Philp Abbot is held responsible for 16,000 murders in the US in 2005 even though he was not the FBI Director that year.

Alberto Gonzales has had to appear before congress several times even though it really is not clear what exactly he's responsible for.

Following this logic: Inasmuch as there was 42,000 Highway fatalities last year, shouldn't we go grab Mary E. Peters the secretary of transportation and drag her into the street for a good old fashioned pistol whipping?

Answer 1

Yes, they should...that is if we were to expect any logic from the likes of liberals

Their thought process is not ruled by any logic. The only controlling question they have is: Does it help bash the President?

Answer 2

Hey, nobody forces you to drive. If you drive, you run the risk of dying on the highway.

Of course, nobody forces you to live in a town that sits below sea level in a region prone to hurricanes, and /not/ maintain the levies that protect it. And, nobody even forces you to join the military (no draft yet).

Answer 3

No. The problem is that BUSH IS NOT being held responsible for the deaths in Iraq. They died unnecessarily, inan illegal, hostile invasion of a non-threatening country. This languaage isn't even permissable in mainstream debate, yet it is the facts. Not to mention the million or so Iraqi's who have died, mostly civilians. What about them? Aren't they human?

Answer 4

Straw man.
