This post is hysterical. There have been *far* more difficult times for America. Times when our very existence was threatened (WWII, Cold War, etc.). Don't make the mistake of exaggerating Al Qaeda's power. They are, at most, a handful of evil people. The rest are useful idiots (the suicide bombers). We've killed or captured many of the evil ones.
Troll alert.
long time no see Mike...
You do realize that is a personal letter from HipShot?
Mike, you do not seriously believe this do you? What planet did you get your news? I suggest you read all 12 threads and see how erroneous you are.
At first I thought that you were trolling. I thought about your statement for some time before I realized that you are probably being deliberately ignorant. Not that I blame you, most of this is scary stuff, and I'd hide from it too if I was made that way.
If it is not deliberate but true ignorance, I have neither the time nor the inclination to educate you. Educate yourself quickly so you're not caught by surprise.
