If Algore or any other of these democrat bozos were in charge we would all be speaking arabic. Bush will have us all speaking Spanish.

The Democrats are a source of domestic "terrorism" and, yes, we are weak on that front. Even as a minority party, they continue to obstruct, e.g., in the US Senate and the Chicken Ds in Texas.

I can see a sense of complacency on this thread. Two weeks ago, Al Qaeda was defeated and in disarray. This just ahead of the slaughter in Riyaudi. Now they are given credit for all the attacks taking place in the world. I don't see any improvement in our border security and ports. Sorry, but I don't buy the idea that the US has solved all the problems with their anti-terrorism campaign. We could have an attack at any time. Forget about the Demos, we still need some more effort on our domestic defense policies.

If that were true, then the dem-socialists are even weaker. Therefore, relatively speaking, Bush is strong on terrorism.

Forget about the Demos, we still need some more effort on our domestic defense policies. While I agree with what you've said, I have to come back to the point of the thread, which is the Dems' criticism of what Bush has done so far, coupled with the implication that they would have done a better job, or that they would in the future if they gain power.
Think of CIC Gore, or one of the nine dwarfs currently announce, or Hitlery, the Dark Queen lurking in the wings.

Forget about the Demos, we still need some more effort on our domestic defense policies.That statement is the essence of complacency. It is the Democrats who are hampering domestic defense policies because they are catering to thier constituancies that want open borders, more immigration, and money diverted from defense to addictive social programs. How could you make such a contradictory statement?

Forget about the Demos, we still need some more effort on our domestic defense policies. Maybe, but do you think the Dems can score on this issue? Maybe when hell freezes over. You can always say we can do more, but Bush has been very aggressive on this issue and nobody will be able to attack Bush here.
To: meenie
Who has said all our problems are solved? That is an ongoing concern. Mock disasters were staged this week. We must all be vigilant.He said we had killed or captured half of AlQueda..not that we had defeated them.All the suicide bombs were against soft targets and low tech.We will never stamp out suicide bombers until the Wahabis stop funding and spreading hatred.I hope the Saudis are prepared for what is necessary.Perfect security is impossible.

If the democrats are so concerned about national security, Mr. Rove should suggest that we take care of the illegal immigrant problem immediately by shutting down the borders and yanking the due process rights of illegals and deporting them.
If the wonderful democrats are stupid enough to try to play this game, we can play it.

I haven't read the rest of the replies yet, but my gut instinct says the RATS are banking on another attack on the US within the US. And soon. We already have al Qaeda announcing that they're gonna hit the "snake's rear end." The question is where are they talking about. Are they talking waterways? We already know we're vulnerable there. There are many possibilities, and with God's help, we can stop them.
I cannot stand partisan politics when it comes to national security. The FEDS cannot do everything. I'm sure there is a lot of "chatter" that Senator Graham hears in intel briefings. Wonder what has him so concerned right now.

I suspect that the "union" members are saying this about Bush for one reason alone: if I am not mistaken, the Democrats fought tooth and nail to get UNION JOBS into Homeland Security.
They lost.

I find it strange that, after showing a complete inability to suggest anything contructive to do about the economy, health care, education (all dem pet projects) and sufficing to whine about them instead, the dems have come up with an even more silly a** idea. They whine about Republican strengths not being strong enough after spending the last 2 1/2 years saying that the Republicans strengths were "Bad Things" and would lead us done "The Wrong Road". Hell they are saying the war on terror has made us less safe and at the same time whining that we aren't doing enough to fight terror!!!! ROFLMAO!!!!
Please, Please, Please keep it up dems..Mental Implosion Imminent. :)

The democrats are in self destruct mode. Pay no attention to them. They will eventually dry up and go away.That ignores every tenet of warfare ever written. I suggest you read some military history and some political science.
