Gee, I guess it was Bush's fault after all

Or so says the Spanish electorate, giving the ruling conservatives the finger and bringing the socialists into power. The short story made even shorter: Spain's government backed US war in Iraq + al-Qa'ida striking western targets = Bombings in Madrid. The Spanish people, 90% of whom were against their government's support of war in Iraq, got the message.

The jab I take at Bush is very much on purpose, since some conservatives have been saying that the left is a bunch of nutjobs if we seek to implicate that Bush has to bare any responsibility for the Madrid bombings. Tell it to the Spanish voters, folks... Try selling your snake oil to the Spanish voters and tell me what they say. They obviously got the hint.
