IMO: all others are moot issues if were being blown up, if terrorist run free and blow up shopping malls you can count on the economy to be in shambles.

"Securing the borders" is . . .
. . . a social issue as well as a security one.
Top priority: End the War against Men as instituted by the radical feminists 30 years ago and since frozen into law. Rebuild the image of masculinity. Teach women that being feminine is not subjection, not slavery. Refuse to put up with disagreeable rad-fem pit bulls. Second: End the foolish War on Drugs and cut/cancel foreign aid to countries which clearly and publicly hate the U.S. Put that money into something more important, such as the top priority, and on reestablishing space travel. We should have a city on the Moon by now, and colonies on Mars. Third: Get some common sense back into America! (Oh, wait, Nos. 1 and 2 will make a good start on that.) Just some ideas . . .

I'd have to say that the first and last options go hand in hand, it takes one to help prevent the other.

The evidence of the last few years suggests that if the government becomes scared they will do anything in the name of protection, without regard to the Constitution, common sense, or the better lives of anyone. That many profit from this process is a given, and in and of itself not wrong. The worst element is that it doesn’t take much to start a path towards paranoia…..Due to this path inevitably, and unavoidably is the removal of the basic rights and liberties that founded and grew the country. As the erosion of rights continues, exactly what is being protected?

Rove also said that after 9/11 Republicans got tough with terrorists while "liberals" offered understanding and therapy for them. Looking at his entire speech in context, it is clear that the Democrats in Congress are included in his use of the term "liberals." Why, then, did the Democrats vote to give Bush full authority to prosecute the war on terror? |

I agree with you Med that all other issues become moot if terrorists run free and blow up shopping malls. But, I can't bring myself to press that "prevent a terrorist attack inside the US" button. Clearly it's probably the most important. But, I have visions of an open checkbook with cavity searches that are occurring on a daily basis at the airports. Money that is clearly thrown down the sewer in the face of "keeping terrorists off the airplane". This government is so GD stupid that they don't even realize that you can't hijack an airplane anymore. You can't do it because you can't get in the cockpit. All the money and time spent at the security checkpoint is largely wasted time. So, if I press the button, I envision hordes of these "homeland security" *******s decending down like a plague in a foolish attempt to stop a terrorist before he lights the fuse. I honestly believe that you must prevent a terrorist attack by stopping the terrorist before he enters the country. If you want to crack down hard, crack down on the entry requirements. At least the citizens of the U.S. are not affected. More resources in preventing these individuals from getting here in the first place will probably be much more effective than running around looking for the next ticking bomb. So, sorry, I can't vote in the poll because it's too simplistic. |
