I do think that we take the war on terror too lightly. Things can get bad very quickly.
Yes, indeed. However, Peggy's strategic analysis on that matter is seriously flawed. A widespread domestic war on terror isn't going to be materially affected by BRAC -- you can stand up ground-troop bases in a big hurry, and we have the means to rapidly transport troops where they need to go, anywhere in the country, and we have local NG units everywhere.
