So what are you suggesting Harry?


It seems that the basic liberal approach is to spend much more money trying to
protect anything which can be attacked in the US. They constantly complain that
we are not spending enough on train, subway, port, city, building, etc,
security. They would be happy if we turned every subway entrance into the
equivalent of an airport security installation, checking each passenger's shoes,
bags, etc. A roadblock every couple miles to check every truck on the road would
be good, as would a complete unloading and repacking of every container entering
the country.

The other approach, taking the battle to them, seems to be the only *feasible*
method of fighting terrorism. Of course, this won't greatly increase the size of
the government.
