Terrorists and Tony Snow?

I heard in passing somewhere that, in response to the recent leak of reports concluding that the Iraq war has created more al Qaeda sympathizers, Tony Snow said something like this: "Well, not every sympathizer becomes a terrorist." Is this true??? I can't find it. I can't believe that it IS true, given that it's too moronic and dishonest even for this bunch. But if it were true, I'd have some further suggestions for them:

1. If it becomes clear that the war has, in fact, created more terrorists, they can point out that not every terrorist actually succeeds in pulling off an attack.

2. If it becomes clear that the war has increased terrorist attacks, they can point out that not every attack results in deaths.

3. If it becomes clear that the war has increased deaths from terrorist attacks, they can point out at some of the people killed probably had it coming anyway.

4. If it becomes clear that the war has increased innocent deaths from terrorist attacks, they can point out that some of those who were killed were probably Democrats.

And so on...

In the mean time, somebody might want to point out that increasing the number of sympathizers is EXACTLY what leads to an increase in terrorist, given that, ya know, that's the pool from which they are recruited...

But, again, I don't believe this story anyway, so I'm just writing this because I felt rather like a smartass this morning, and since they get away with so many lies anyway I don't really mind busting their chops for something apocryphal now and then.
