Am worried about the "Homeland Security" position and the "all measures" to be given to law enforcement.

Me too. I liked the foreign policy aspects of his speech, but he was weak on the domestic side.

I would have liked to see him talk more about individual freedom: fewer regulations, lower taxes, fewer laws, etc.... It would have been an excellent opportunity to rekindle the flame of liberty in this country.

"fewer regulations, lower taxes, fewer laws"

What??? I agree with you on the issues, but, mentioning during the speech tonight?? Crazy...

Agreed ... but all in all it was a very good speech. I just want to see how far they go with the position.

If they train a "home guard", ie. local militia's under local (Sheriff) control to combat this, that will be good.
