Lori, I hope you're right. However the administrations track record on border security does not inspire confidance. The president seems to be more concerned over the presence of citizen "vigilantes" (i.e.,Minutemen) on the border than he is with illegal entry by terrorists. If he or his chief of homeland security Cherkoff have any serious concern over terrorist entry through our porous borders, they've kept it hidden from me.
If you are in possession of any reassuring information to the contrary that you could share on this subject without revealing anything sensitive, I would appreciate hearing about it.
Right now, based on what I see, in the event of a showdown with the internal terrorist threat I do not have a warm feeling that federal law enforcement policy will be supportive of the citizens.
Keep your eyes and ears open, and your powder dry.
