This is friggin' unbelievable! Like the Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight! Quick PS: A friend of mine, a 60 yr old women of European descent, expensively dressed, is a passenger in a taxi a few weeks ago, travelling over one of the NYC bridges. Security check. She gets asked for her papers, while the driver, a swarthy man with a turban gets asked NOTHING! HELLO!!! So now we 'wait for evidence'? Pfft!

God, Guns, and Guts Built and Maintain America. Ever was and ever will it be. That all too many have chosen to ignore this truth (at their own peril) does not nor cannot negate it.

I refuse to accept this notion that "life in America will never be the same (Post 9/11)." Sorry, it's ALWAYS been the same. Stick around long enough and sooner or later something bad will occur that requires a firm response. That's why full preparedness, which presupposes nourishing the constant will to be prepared for anything, must rank second to nothing IMO if the Republic is to survive.

Mr. President, I love you, but I need no guidance as to how I can help. I know what to do.

Over and out.
