WP: Gillespie sez Bush responsible for deaths of GIs

From the Washington Post's chatter column:

The following is a statement by Republican National Committee Chairman Ed Gillespie, on Sen. Tim Johnson's comments comparing Republicans to the Taliban:

" 'Unfortunately for angry Democrats like Tim Johnson, Nancy Pelosi and Ted Kennedy, terrorists aren't responsible for the deaths of U.S. soldiers, their commander-in-chief is.' "

7. this is precisely...
...what the VRWC does to Democrats. Takes a gaffe or misstatement, twists it, and runs with it.

Gillespie said it. The chattering class of Washington thinks it's noteworthy.

4. His grammatical structure is unfortunate for him.
Of course he meant that this view is attributable to the Democrats in question. But I'll interpret it as I choose!
