I expected the United States to go on a war footing after 9/11. I expected the borders to be sealed, a military draft, factories to be converted to making war materials, etc. I saw none of that. Instead we're playing some PC war crap that is resulting in our soldiers getting killed over there. The casualty numbers would be FAR lower if we weren't being so careful about not hurting anyone's feelings, disparaging anyone's "culture" or "religion", or causing collateral damage. This is World War III, dammit! Act like it. And if those who represent us, from the House of Reps all the way up to the White House, don't hurry up and recognize this we are doomed.
Again, I agree completely. If we have to absorb another significant domestic attack, the federal government is going to have a lot to answer for. And, this time, appointing blue ribbon committees and holding hearings isn't going to cut it. Not by a longshot.
