Hmm...so face punching is OK?
But it was clear that she simply didnt have the ease of knowledge that we come to expect from a major party political candidate. Other slights came up, too: Not knowing the difference between Hezbollah and Hamas. Or the difference between the Shiites and Suni. Or when it came to international terrorist organizations, knowing that the IRA was in Northern Ireland, and ETA in Spain.
There is only one thing anyone needs to know about those groups- they are TERRORISTS. Who the hell cares WHY they are terrorists or what their mailing address is????
I wonder why he didn't also throw FARC and FALN in there as examples. Who cares about the difference between Shiite and Sunni, or ETA and IRA, or FARC and FALN. We needed to get to the Bush Doctrine of "We will make no distinction between those who carried out these attacks and those states who give them harbor." The name of the terrorist group is irrelevant.
