Karzai Owns the White House Press Corps.

Today, in a joint press conference, the Preisdent and Presiden Karzai of Afghanistan were asked about the war on Terror.

Below is a transcript of what transpired.

Rush: We have the Hamid Karzai bite. Here's the question from some info babe named Jennifer. (doing sniveling reporter impression) "Even after hearing that one of the major conclusions like, you know what I mean, of the National Intelligence Estimate in April was that the Iraq war has fueled terror growth around the world, why have you continued to say, Mr. President, that the Iraq war is, you know what I mean, made this country safer?"

KARZAI: Terrorism was hurting us way before Iraq or September 11th. The president mentioned some examples of it. These extremist forces were killing people in Afghanistan and around the world for years, closing schools, burning mosques, killing children, uprooting vineyards, vine trees, grapes hanging on them, forcing populations to poverty and misery. They came to America on September 11th, but they were attacking you before September 11th in other parts of the world. We are a witness in Afghanistan to what they are and how they can hurt. You are a witness in New York. Do you forget people jumping off the 80th floor or 70th floor when the planes hit them? Can you imagine what it will be for a man or a woman to jump off that high? Who did that? And where are they now? And how do we fight them, how do we get rid of them? Other than going after them. Should we wait for them to come and kill us again? That's why we need more action around the world, in Afghanistan and elsewhere, to get them defeated. Extremism, their allies, terrorists, and the like.
