What? You feel that our highly trained airport goons aren't any good?
That our holey border fences north and south won't stop the tangoes?

Awww, you were doing so well, too, Ed. The glitch is that we cannot
protect ourselves or our country from terrorist attacks, period. We
can catch several (maybe even most) attempts, but we can't get all of
them. And that included both foreign and domestic terrorists. You or
anyone you know (or don't know) could cause any one of hundreds of
terrorist acts and nobody would be the wiser until it was over.
That's its beauty (when our military needs it) and terror (when they
do it to us.)

Exactly correct. Thank God there are people that
can still think and still have common sense and
do not listen to such strategic nonsense as the "president"
has spouted.
This does NOT mean that the Democrats have anything
better. Their party, too, was hijacked and partially destroyed by the
neo-cons.
Somehow, Bush and the neo-cons made ANY QUESTIONING of their idiot
pretend war on terrorism un-patriotic. That worked for a while but
by now the vast majority of the American people have figured out that
the war on terrorism and the war on Iraq are two different things with
wildly disparate motives and objectives.
This does not bode well for Bush's "legacy" (GUFFAW).

Thanks gunner.
"Citizen" Jim needs to have someone explain, probably with small
words and simple pictures. how really stupid it is to wait until
something bad happens, and then launch a police investigation. I
figure a Tanya Harding episode applied personally might get the
message though.

Do you apply that principle to gun control, too?
