Hillary will not be president.

Security forces have destroyed about one plot per day world wide.

Bush gets no credit for what he does.

This could be wishful thinking on my part, but I’ve long felt that TSA airport inspections of passengers is mere window-dressing (and hence their slipshod work) and that the real work is being done secretly by our anti-terrorism operatives. Perhaps we’re even “disappearing” some of the cell members among us.
