The biggest weapon the enemy has in its arsenal is our political correctness.

[GWB00]

Ned Lamont and Matt Lauer, separated at birth?

"The biggest weapon the enemy has in its arsenal is our political correctness."

That- coupled with our complicit MSM - pretty much makes up most of their arsenal, IMHO.

[Former MSM Viewer]

We must never lose the will to fight the terrorists. The media seem to want to convince us that we shouldnt fight.

Cindy Sheehan wants to convince us not to fight.

We lost 500,000 men in WWII fighting evil. We have lost 3000 in this war (on the battlefield) and many people are throwing in the towel.

We cannot lose our will to fight. The Matt Lauers and Sheehans of the world need to be slapped down and ignored.

God Bless our troops and our President.

Well said.

People in this administration just might need to learn the advantages of profiling.

[johnny7]

How would you like to wake up in a foxhole... and see these two beside you?

[Skooz]

The biggest weapon the enemy has in its arsenal is our political correctness.

Yep. Unabated, political correctness will be the means by which the United States is destroyed. I have no doubt.

[OpusatFR]

"Lauer floated his theory this way:..."

Scary. A teleprompter reader purports to have expertise and advances his "theory."

[fortheDeclaration]

We lost 500,000 men in WWII fighting evil

Not to be picky, but I think the number was under 200,000.

[rabidralph]

OTOH, who cares what the terrorists' affiliations are, they are terrorists and they're plotting to kill us. We must take all of that more seriously. A plot by some backyard terrorist can be just as deadly as what was thwarted.

Yes.

Now, the TSA is taking away skin lotions from grandmothers and hair gels and toothpaste....

Officials still refuse to speak the name of the 'real' problem which is Middle Eastern/Islamics.

But.... "enjoy your trip" per Chertoff and HSD.

I think the real point here is that the media, and most of everyone else, doesn't even believe in evil any more.

[The Sons of Liberty]

Lauer is dim witted egotistical a$$.

Amen

[Tribune7]

407,300 military deaths, 11,200 civilian deaths.

[silent_jonny]

The fifth anniversary of 9/11 is coming up. More plots like this will probably be revealed--hopefully in time to stop them.

[eyespysomething]

Hmmm, would the passengers be any less dead if the group didn't have direct ties to Al-Qaeda? Would the plot be any less sinister? Up to 10 airplanes? These people are going to get us killed!!

OTOH, Lauer is a maroon and buffoon.
