It is very clear by now that there are 2 very different national security
visions opposing each other in this election:

President Bush
View the world with a post-9/11 mentality: Understand that imminence of
danger cannot be accurately calibrated or timed and, therefore, strike at
our enemies earlier rather than later to nip their threats in the bud
before they can fully develop, with as many allies as possible, but
without
UN cover if necessary.


Senator Kerry
View the world with a pre-9/11 mentality: Await 100% conclusive
confirmation that threats have reached full maturity and, only then, act
against them within the confines of UN mandates.

Nonsense - Bush attacked the uninvolved. Let the bad guys alone. Only
rational thing was Afghanistan. Still has not gone after the Saudis the
Yemenis the Iranian the Pakistanis or the North Koreans. He is far more of
a pacificist than Kerry...just disguises it in wolf like words.


I don't much care for Kerry either...just marginally better than the
milquetoast alternative.

We need Truman.
