Col. Hunt rocks! And when you read this, you will not be able to read Col. Hunt's responses without hearing his raspy voice.

You're so right...talking a mile a minute, raspy voice and all.

FOX did have the best military analysts. They were critical when necessary, but undoubtedly cheerleaders for the country. And don't get them started on France! LOL.

Great article.

And now I want to hear him read poetry. I'm trying to imagine that & just can't.

HUNT: ...We're not profiling. We know who's attacking us, but we pull over grandmothers so that when we go to court we can show that we're treating white women the same way. Everyone knows that's the wrong thing to do.

< -snip- >

NRO: Why haven't we seen more terrorist attacks on our soil since 9/11?

HUNT: They've chosen not to. They've always waited 18 months to two years between operations. They'll decide when to attack us. We've done a good job in dismantling some of the terrorist apparatus, but al Qaeda is just one example. We haven't gotten bin laden. I'm afraid that it's going to take something really bad to happen before we get serious enough about this. We've started to pat ourselves on the butt already, and that's dangerous. I'll tell you one thing, the next one ain't gonna be New York. D.C. is a better target, maybe Houston, Cincinnati, or something from the Canadian border. Think of that: a coordinated action over the Mexican and Canadian borders.

If that's not disconcerting, think about where the moral and political culpability will fall, the next time.

These problems needed to be addressed before 9/11, and that lack of foresight was obvious to all by nightfall that day. Yet, it continues, as a calculated matter of policy. When it hits the fan again, that buck will stop on a desk in an office without corners, and "we had no way of knowing" isn't going to wish that reality away.

Oh wow! You are exactly right! I think Col. Hunt is a really classy guy. He's someone I would like to meet and have a discussion with. He knows the inside stuff - he's great!!
