Sometimes, just sometimes, I wonder if we benefit from a strong

It keeps your from harm.
Does it? And at what cost? It seems to me, since WWII, this country
has
been at peace . . . Well, at least a couple of years. Perhaps, if
our
military wasn't so strong, we wouldn't be using them as much.
By the simple fact that our military is strong, very strong, we are
generally safe within our own borders.

Unless George W. Bush was president and you happened to be in the WTC on
11 September 2001.

We're not generally safe within our own borders. Any small group of
dedicated and bright terrorists can create a huge killing event in any
of our major cities any time they want.


Did not matter who was POTUS 11 September 2001. We would still have a
cleared spot where the WTC stood.


Prove that.


Careful, Harry. The drones like to say that since we've been in Iraq, there
have been no terrorist attacks here. Naturally, this is a stupid thing to
say, for any number of reasons. You're about to request something which
you've previously agreed is not within the control of any president.
