BUT I'M MORE AFRAID OF THE ISLAMIC GOONS THAN I AM OF BUSH'S SPENDING

What do you mean?

[Texasforever]

to the company of conservatives who he seems to consider an embarassment.

Sometimes the truth hurts. I really dislike liberals but I do find many "conservatives" to be embarrassing in their lack of maturity. You know the type I mean. Those that accuse Bush of committing a capital crime?

[gatorbait]

You're smart and incisive and we've been friends since I came on here so, give it some reflection .:- )

If someone had told me on 9/12/2001 that we would make it to 1/30/2004 without another terrorist attack, I would have had a hard time believing it. IMHO, somebody is doing something right.

If someone had told me on 9/12 that we would have ousted the Taliban, taken down the regime of Saddam Hussein, sending weapons inspectors into Libya and possibly Iran, I woud have had a hard time believing it.

And lest we forget, the Presidents primary function is Head of State and our representative to the rest of the world AND Commander in Chief.

The Senate and Congress (as many members as there are) should focus on domestic issues rather than our war against terrorism. (which Dubya' has done a great job in keeping it outside our borders)

Dubya' has given back to the office of the Presidency a respectful representation of our country to the rest of the world which was lost in the 8 years before his tenure.

Great article by Neil!

Character counts, and to my mind, George W. Bush has character.

I agree completely.

I already know what kind of character the Dim candidates have, and I don't want to gamble our nation's defense on them. As I've said before, I'm pretty sure that Lieberman wouldn't be an appeaser, and gets it on defense, but because of that fact, he doesn't have a chance.

And who wants Her Heinous skating in as a semi-incumbent in 2008?

[bootless]

Of course one could vote for someone else or not vote, that would only help put a Democrat in office. None of these candidates are capable of protecting America.

This was so good, I wanted to highlight it.

[bootless]

There were eight years between the two WTC attacks.

True. Do we want the second attack on NY or DC or LA or SF or the heartland to be during - and due to - a Democratic appeaser's presidency?

I remember very clearly the immediate weeks after 9-11 - every morning I woke up, checking to make sure everything was still standing. We didn't know WHAT would happen then.

That was a good post.

Re: the WOT, you're just talking about Iraq. What about:

Syria
Pakistan
Iran
The remainders in Afghanistan
Saudi Arabia
The Palestinians
Germany's Islamofascist cells
France's Islamofascist cells
The UK's Islamofascist cells
The USA's Islamofascist cells

?

[bootless]

You've got it.

So, shall we go back to sleep? NO.

I left out a few more countries, including the Sudan, Yemen, and God knows how many other incubators of evil there are.

[bootless]

I thought it was common knowledge that we are pulling out of Iraq by summer.

Leaving Iraq will not eliminate the terrorist threat in the world - PLEASE tell me you don't believe that!

[bootless]

Whether or not we are "in" any of those countries, the WOT will not stop. God knows the terrorists aren't going to stop. If they don't, we CAN'T.

[MissAmericanPie]

I was speaking of major military action. I doubt we will go into Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, Iran, Jordan, Lybia has rolled over and played dead, or Saudi Arabia. I think the major military end of it is pretty much a mop up operation.

We might go into Paskistan's "no man's land", I would like to see us go into Yemen.

[Ciexyz]

If the Demopukes get in, we'll be seeing such a drop in our security that we could even see suicide bombings on our shores.

[bootless]

I understand now that you were talking about major military action, but that is by no means the whole of the WOT. Most of the WOT is unconventionally driven, and out of sight. Unlike TRIPOTUS Clinton (feh!), the WOT is not being prosecuted in the media, and is far, far from over.

[Ciexyz]

There will be special ops operations, I'm sure, that we'll never know about.

La Femme Nikita bump.

[Ciexyz]

I have no doubt they're waiting for the next RAT president to resume their attacks.

Yes, the RATS will do everything possible to protect the terrorists' constitutional rights--even as they start suicide bombing Cleveland.

9-11 was no hobgoblin

Really?

Does all the "homeland security" and new oppressive regulations and huge expensive "war on terror," do one thing to eleviate the last 9-11? Do you think this is all to prevent another 9-11? Weren't they already supposed to do that? What makes you think, just because they passed a lot of oppressive laws and spent a lot of money they are going to be any more effective stopping the next one?

Americans really are suckers.
