The terrorist actions in Spain and Baghdad are, of course, terrible tragedies. And it bothers me more than it probably should that as I surfed the Internet, the overriding discussion points for those two horrible incidents seemed to be how they could be used in our current presidential election. You have articles that say what happened in Spain makes the case for the defeat of George Bush and you have articles claiming that it proves we should not elect John Kerry. And in discussion groups on both sides, there's a lot of talk of how their guy can use this to get votes. It's going to be a long time 'til November, people.
