In a brief op-ed in USA Today, White House counterterrorism chief John Brennan charges that critics who question the Obama administration's decision to grant Miranda rights to accused Detroit bomber Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab are "serv[ing] the goals of al Qaeda."

"Too many in Washington are now misrepresenting the facts to score political points," Brennan writes. "Politically motivated criticism and unfounded fear-mongering only serve the goals of al-Qaeda."

Every day it becomes more clear barry is insane. Even dems are starting to see this, it is a joy to behold.

BarackO has drug-fried brain cells. He is semi-sane. Just sane enough to be dangerous.

Brennan is operating on a short fuse.

They can’t take any criticism. This guys always sounds mad at the world.

I wish they would pin down this guy to name all things that Bush did right in the War on Terror.

John Murtha served the recruitment cause of Al Qaeda with his partisan witchhunt of the “Haditha” Marines.

Newsweak served the recruitment cause of Al Qaeda with their bogus claims of korans being flushed down the toilet.

Ted Kennedy served the recruitment cause of Al Qaeda with his proclamation that Abu Ghraib had simply reopened under new management (implying that Bush was guilty of the very same horrors as Saddam Hussein, which included rape, disfigurment, and murder).

The meme last decade was “are you questioning my patriotism”, “dissent is patriotic” and “a chill wind is blowing (silencing freedom of speech)”.

"unfounded fear-mongering only serve the goals of al-Qaeda."

Yeah, we've got 20 years before we kill the planet. I know fear-mongering when I hear it.
