Excellent post, WFTR.

Our nation can't win if too many of us are ambivalent about winning, and the president can't force people to have a will to win.

I just had to repeat that. It can't be said too often and I often wonder if we are so "instant gratificationized" that it will take another 9/11 style attack to get people to wake up. Even then I fear that more blame will be directed towards the leaders in our own country, than at the goals and aspirations of our enemies.

There needs to be real investment by the adults in this country in trying to explain just what our enemies want. Unfortunately, the people talking about it are often labeled as needlessly alarmist.

Sometimes, I wonder if this is what Noah felt like. ; )

Thanks for giving me a nice chuckle. The advantage that Noah had is that the animals had more common sense than some of the people in this country who need saving.
