punditman says...
Dennis Milligan, who happens to be the head of the Republican party in Arkansas, appears to be saying openly what many an unrepentant neo-con must be secretly praying for: another spectacular terrorist attack on US soil. They got their "new Pearl Harbor" with 9-11 (as they mention in their own PNAC documents), and the people rallied -- for awhile, that is, until Shrub decided to invade Iraq for reasons that had nothing to do with 9-11.
Punditman thinks that such an attack would in fact improve Bush's pathetic standing because all opposition would be rendered mute by political pressure and fascist measures aimed at quashing dissent, already in law, ready to be enacted in such an eventuality. Such is the only remaining hope for a hopelessly failed presidency. So, in a very twisted way, this guy is right, although I doubt his bosses in Washington wanted him to put his foot in his mouth (or shall we say, "let the cat out of the bag").
