If cleaning up that pond scum means I'm dead, so be it.
I say we take them out, in a manner that leaves no doubt we will do it again, to the next a**hole that gets that far out of line, if we need to. We won't do it precipitously -- there will be plenty of warning. And we won't do it lightly -- we will have more patience and tolerance for evil than most folks can imagine. But when we say "this is it -- shape out or ship out, to hell", we will mean it. Period.
And if they do score a big hit on us, on their way down, maybe it will teach America a lesson: don't let the evil ones get so far before striking next time; don't elect a President for eight years running who is a lying, coke snorting, thieving, raping, murdering traitor, big time.
Character counts. Freedom is worth dying for.
Bush and his folks are pretty darn well aware of the risks involved. They are doing as much as they can to see that such an attempt to kill innocents fails. And I trust that they wouldn't be taking that risk unless the alternative sucked worse. But our enemy has chosen to make this a war on civilians - us. We are in the cross hairs just as much as our brave young soldiers.
Stand tall. Be brave. Live free or die.
