Controversy over Bush's terrorism numbers.

Is Dubya winning the war on terrorism or losing it? Well, according to this story, the number of "significant" acts of terrorism worldwide TRIPLED from 2003 to 2004.

The difference isn't the actual acts of violence, but how the Bush administration has been tallying the numbers. Bush has been cutting out certain types of terrorism to keep the number low. For example, 9/11 would be counted by Bush but the Oklahoma City bombing would not. But also, Bush hasn't put the manpower in place to accurately keep track of worldwide terrorism numbers. There's nothing like seeing a policy maker make policy based on phantom or recklessly erroneous numbers. Reality's never been George's strong suit anyway...
