We've put ourselves in this position. Look at our track record in the Middle East. Jimmy Carter didn't have a "set" to go after the Iranians when they took over the embassy in Teheran. We did a limited military action in the desert which ended up making our military look inept (no offense implied.)We are less than 5 years from a MAJOR TERRORIST attack on our soil and we don't have the stomach for a sustained war. The majority party is fighting internally over policy issues and our CIC's poll numbers are in the tank. All AQ has to do is sit tight and we'll self-destruct. I have been a Republican my entire adult life. I support GW in this war and I'm tired of the spineless RINO's that are now lining their pockets with $$$$ at my expense. AQ WILL do something it's not if, it's when. We must as a nation understand that at some point we are going to have to get our "hands dirty" and just do it.
I agree. We will be the victims of our own inaction.
It's their move. Not fun playing the wait and see.
Better the kick some ass now ask questions later game.

AMEN. Bush Sr. also understood this as a CIA guy. It's a dirty business of taking out the trash but we live in a dirty world...
