a conspiracy from within, and that we don't have to worry about future
terrorism. We are all so safe now that terrorism has been removed from the
vocabulary.

Forgetting is politically expedient for nearly half of the country...


Obama is keeping us safe from the evil terrorists, just like the right
claimed Bush was doing because there wasn't an attack after 9/11


You are correct. That's another thing I can add to the list of great
Obama accomplishments.

I think the Bush Admin. already took care of the heavy lifting... Using
your analogy, my Doctor has kept me safe from bubonic plague..


Your party was the one claiming that Bush was keeping us safe. And the
reasoning was because there hadn't been an attack since 9/11. SO, it's a
simple analogy that Obama is keeping us safe also. But, I honestly
suspected that you'd figure out a way to spin it so that Bush is the
hero, and Obama hasn't done anything. Typical and expected.

Loogy, I think you're correct on this one. 'Bama has done a super job
at preventing terrorist attacks. Of course, there's no such thing as a
terrorist attack, but he's been successful in preventing 'man made
disasters' also.

And, I've not caught bubonic plague either!

911 was caused by the US Government to declare War on the Middle East
ONLY to gain Oil.......
I guess it should cause more outrage...considering the US Govt.
slaughtered its own citizens.......

Yeah, like starting a war to inflame the Islamic world. A war of choice, a
war where 1000s of our men and women died for no reason.

Your doctor didn't keep you safe. It was institutions such as the CDC..
gov't run agencies.

The assertion is certainly true. Unfortunately the current
administration always takes the blame for whatever happens (attacks,
recessions or whatever) so we are still waiting to see how long we
stay safe. I would ve very happy in Obama gets through his term with
no bad things happening ... but I am only thinking out for my own good
fortune. Anyone who feels any other way is a moron.



I have no doubt you feel this way, but some like Cheney and some on Fox
would be quite happy to see us attacked.

They are certainly morons by your definition and mine.

Your tax dollars make it possible for justwait to see a doctor and
obtain medication, but he's against health care reform.

You're missing the point! When Bush was president, you and other
righties made frequent comments about how safe he was keeping us because
we hadn't had an attack since 9/11. So it stands that Obama is doing a
great job at it too. I made several comments about how lame that
reasoning was.

The CDC is an information clearing house and policy producing
organization. The CDC is not on the leading edge of research.

Oh my goodness. You may be right again, although I can't remember
*ever* uttering a comment about how safe Bush was keeping us. Perhaps
you could find even *one* example of such?

And, I've done nothing *but* agree that 'Bama is doing a super job at
keeping us safe from man made disasters.

What the hell more do you want?
