Done:
Because you have stated your concern about protecting all Americans and are striving to come up with alternative ideas to protect us, I suggest you read "George Bush's action saves American lives," by Dateline, U.S. (http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/tribune-review/opinion/datelinedc/s_102788.html)
You should also be aware that most Americans believe the current MAN in the White House is actually doing the people's business instead of giving the people the business while receiving the business from an intern.
Also, intel generated by/through the actions in Afghanistan is what allowed the U.S. to defang these terrorist cells ... and that sure is a huge success and a vast improvement, especially when compared to what you have done for the past 8 years and what your president did, lobbing missiles into empty terrorist camps and flattening aspirin factories in the Sudan.
P.S. Did you forget that Clinton was aware of and could have gotten bin Laden, years ago? Because Clinton got a pass from you for that.
