But now it should be clear to every American that insane policies like this threaten our very existence as an independent, sovereign, self-governing nation.

This has been true for decades, and extremely frustrating that we never fixed it.

We're in a war now, but the threat we face is internal more than external.

Yes we're in a war now. The war has been going on since the '70s, at least that's when they declared war and earnestly began killing Americans wherever they could. I don't believe the threat internally has changed, we're more aware and sensitive to it (some are VERY sensitive to it). To believe the threat is more internal than external, no. For three decades terrorists experts have been warning that it was only a matter of time, and the last 10 years we've been living on borrowed time.

How we handle our new realization will speak to our courage as a nation.

I think the internal threat is greater. If the flood of illegal immigrants does not stop, in two generations they will be able to vote as a block and determine elections. Then the redistribution of wealth will really begin and American capitalism will be destroyed, wealth creation will stagnate, and America as we know it will die.
