We scored touchdowns in Afghanistan and Iraq and got field goals for the deaths or capture of many of the Al-Qaeda leaders, the capture of Saddam, and the capitulation of Libya. However, the terrorists got a touchdown on their opening drive on 9-11, field goals in Bali, Kenya, Tunisia, and Turkey, and another touchdown with a two-point conversion for Madrid.

If you add these scores up, they still have the lead, 26-23. We've got to get Osama and his lunatics out of action as soon as possible, before Kerry uses the sheeples fears to sneak into the White House and forfeits the game on account of his gutlessness.

Some good points here.

I agree with you here to a point. The problem I have is that I don't think the terror war is anywhere close to being over. I think this is a clash of civilizations. Catching Bin Laden and his cronies is only a small part of it.

John Kerry may well win in November, infact I am leaning in the direction that he may be. Saying that, I am not the defeatist many assume I am by saying such a thing. I just, flat out, don't think the West (to include the United States) really understands the war we are engaged in. The West, even the US, is attempting to fight a sort of politically correct pinprick conflict - assuming that our enemy is just a few bad apples and fanatics. This is the wrong approach, and everytime I hear Bush (no matter how well intentioned he may be) say that Islam is a "religion of peace" with a straight face, I believe that even he is trying to avoid acceptance of the awful horror of what we are really up against.

In the long term, militant Islam, an ideology the majority of Muslims are edging every closer towards, will be defeated. And if Kerry wins it will only be a setback - just part and parcel of the failures the West will need to endure before it is really prepared to engage in the fight in a way that will eventually achieve victory.

Bush is indeed a man whom generally grasps the threat, and history will regard him as one of the first Western leaders to really stand against our enemies, but American and European populations just aren't ready yet to face up to the challenge......net yet anyway.
