Proof that Bush is not making progress in his "war on terror"

George W. Bush keeps telling us that he's making progress in the war on terror.

The facts, however, tell us a very different story.

A friend (hi, PG) just told me about the MIPT Terrorism Knowledge Base online.

Go to the chart module and look up the number of international and domestic terror incidents from 2000 through 2006.

Of all the terrorists incidents over the past six years:

• only 7% happened in 2000, before George W. Bush was elected;

• 10% happened in 2001;

• 16% in 2002;

• 11% in 2003;

• 16% in 2004;

• 29% in 2005;

• and 11% happened already in 2006, and we're not even halfway through the year!

Way to go, George.
