Bo comes through -- AGAIN

The latest from our very own Bo in the Daily Iowan is must-read material. Really on top of his game this week.

Unfortunately, Bo doesn't write his own headlines--the headline doesn't really reflect the thrust of the column.

It's hard to pick a money quote -- the whole thing is money. Here's an excerpt:

Yet do liberals think Al Qaeda and the insurgents in Iraq are oblivious to American politics? Does the left think al-Zarqawi and his disciples do not tremble with glee when John Kerry alludes to looming American troop withdrawal in his stump speeches? If the American public can sense Bush is stronger on terrorism than Kerry, as the polls overwhelmingly indicate, certainly terrorists are attuned to this disparity as well. Terrorists are also more aware of which candidate would wage war on countries that harbor them, without regard for the lurching, lethargic mechanism that is the United Nations. This conclusion is self-evident, which is why Orrin Hatch notes that terrorists will attempt to influence this election in favor of Kerry and why Richard Armitage said the Iraqi insurgents wish to turn this election against President Bush.

Are you serious -- in an hour between classes? Good grief, man, that's impressive. I thought it was definitely a very solid column: focused and well-supported.
