We may not be a third world hell-hole yet, but we are MUCH closer than you think.

OK. I know this is how you see it. But I have been to third world hellholes and America is not even remotely close to being one. Hint- we're the most advanced nation on Earth. Third world is worse than your worst nightmares.

At any rate, you can get worked up over this problem and this is fair enough. On a scale of one to ten, it might rate a five or six. Hey, let's be generous and give it a 9.

So, your issue is a 9.

My issue, on a scale of one to ten rates about 350 (that's three hundred fifty). Your issue pales in comparison to mine.

I care about your issue. I really do. Don't get me wrong on that. But next to nuclear annihilation, frankly, it doesn't seem that important to me.

If you think Kerry is the guy that's better suited to dealing with America's problem of getting nuked by al Qaeda- you vote for him. That's fair.

Personally, I don't think he's up to the job. Not that I necessarily think Dubya is either but between the two- Dubya looks about ten times as good.

Actually Japan, South Korea and Tiawan are on the technological edge in the world, we lag way behind in 4th place.

If you are talking about a city being nuked, no it is not that high.

Look at it logically, if a nuke blows (by forgien terrorists) in a city full of socialist control-freaks who support the destruction of the rest of this country, including US. Then in a sick way, wouldn't that be a postitive event for the rest of us.
