yes, terrorists and other enemies both inside and outside our country do influence the freedom we enjoy here.

Only if we let them, and only if we let the politicians change our freedoms.

Good enough to have been taught that in every war we fought up through WWII we have had to temporarily suspend a small portion of our liberty in exchange for our own national survival. After each of those wars we came back freer than before.

What about a war that never ends?

Well then it would be a problem, but seeing as the end of the WoT and WoD are in sight I don't have a problem with the goverment stationing an agent in my house til next week when it's all over.

"What about a war that never ends?"

Now you've exposed yourself. That's a clever left wing line. But as someone once said, an ounce of loyalty is worth a pound of cleverness. The "war that never ends" exists only in the minds of those unwilling to grapple with reality. And the reality is that we will win this war, once the handwringing stops.

Now, here's a question that, if you answer honestly, will blow your argument to bits. What happened to all those freedoms we lost during WWII?
