Nope, I just have informed opinions based on numerous sources. It does not make me right.
I support the war against terrorism in general. In my opinion, it is better than doing nothing. Most reasonable people I beleive would agree regarding the dangers of terrorism.
I do realize some that live in the conspiracy world regarding our governemnt and Iraq beleive we should do nothing. Most of those folks offer nothing in return but cut and run.

If you missed my point, We've spent a mind blowing amount of money on security in this country long before Bush showed up. So much that we have more people in prison in this country then China & Russia combined together.
Why is that?.... I refuse to be intimidated by a bunch of sand dwelling fools on the other side of the world without a military.
If this war campaign produced by the Bush administration intimidates you... Shall be it!!!
But excuse me if I mock the idea & refuse its intimidation.
What a mind ********** (please refrain from using inappropriate language)we as Americans are dealing with.

Actually, prior to Bush during the CLinton years the military was shrunk by about 40%.
It is that spending and the war on terror in general that has resulted in zero attacks here at home since 9/11, and several plots uncovered abroad and dealt with swiftly.
The fact the terrorists do not have conventional means of fighting make them more likely to hit us here at home then a conventional military in general.
You dont have to beleive they will attack again and/or be intimidated at all. Simply support ignoring it and do nothing. Cut and run and we'll all be safer. You are free to beleive that and post your opinion regarding a president with you brilliant "language" and view....and our brave men and women in the military will continue the watch so you can do so.

If we as the people of our nation allow our government to spend more then the rest of the world combined in a aggressive nature. We will surely meet another attack.
its common sense.

So, conversely, if we quit spending anything on our military we will never be attacked?
So now you're saying Al Qaeda attacked us because we spent too much on our military? That's interesting, considering we were attacked half a dozen times under President Clinton when he had drastically cut our military spending... Hmm... something doesn't add up here.

Sorry, my common sense does not follow this logic. So, Ali and the gang or mad becuase we spend $ on our defense?
It is now your position if we quit and/or reduce military spending....the terrorists will leave us alone and forget about us? While many of the political cut and runners would like to reduce miltary spending, I doubt you could find many that beleive this is the resason we were attcked by the terrorists.
Is this their battle cry? We will destroy you becuase you spend to much on the military? Hmmm...not sure I've heard that rally cry form the terrorists before.
