What Is Rudy Talking About?

By The Daily Dish

Jun 6 2007, 10:57 AM ET

Jim Fallows marvels at the Manhattan Mussolini's grasp of Iraq's role in the war on terror. Last night Rudy said:

It's unthinkable that you would leave Saddam Hussein in charge of Iraq and be able to fight the war on terror.

As Jim points out, if that's true after all we've discovered these past few years, then why isn't the following just as true:

It's unthinkable that you would leave Osama bin Laden in charge of al Qaeda and be able to fight the war on terror.

Or don't the Republicans want to go there?
