Tweak the names and this column from a writer who died in Iraq back in 2003 still works. And it still illuminates the key dilemma-- how to manage the work-around of September 10th leadership.
Reading this years ago, I thought we were entering a new epoch, that 'serious time' that Kelly described. Unfortunately only a minority of our fellow citizens have been able to discern the new realities. The Reids, the Pelosis, Schumers, Albrights and the Murthas have been successful in their misdirections. The general public has lost track of what we are doing and what needs to be done in the way of guarding our national security.
It's pretty clear that we're going to have to take another critical blow before the rest of the citizenry wakes from its slumber and realizes that we are in a struggle to the death. And that we need real leaders to bring us to victory.

The London plot doesn't seem to have had any effect on the sleepy ones. How much more of a wake-up call do they need?

This may be slightly off topic (I apologize), but my husband, a retired military intelligence First Sargent, has been awakened several times per night, several days in a row, by nightmares.

In his nightmares he is stunned and horrified by a terrorist attack that occurs around the 9/11 date. He has no clue what kind of attack, as the dream always seems to start "in progress", and he is confronted only by the aftermath of the attack. He described the feeling as being paralyzed and not even being able to help. I've never seen him this worried by a dream before.

The enemy must be defined. It is Islam.
