Does anyone else see this as a dangerous way of thinking of the war on terrorism. I don't think that the first WTC attack, USS Cole bombing, etc, which killed americans, was a nuisance that just had to be tolerated. I see it as a warning that went unheeded by both sides and showed the terrorists that we were not serious about protecting ourselves.
I dont think that any president anymore can think of the threat that we face is a nuisance. It is dangerous and irresponsible and I think it gets to the heart of the differnce that Bush and Kerry have about this problem.

I totally agree with you. Kerry wants to go back to the "good ol' days when terrorists are a nuisance" and they just metastasize into this giant threat? We let them grow and grow until they are powerful again and September 11th happens all over again? We allow these threats to continue to proliferate in the world? I don't think anyone in their right mind could honestly say that September 11th, the cole bombings, U.S. embassy bombings, and numerous other attacks did not prove to Americans, as well as other nations that terrorism is a grave threat to every nation. If people buy into this liberal nonsense, then sadly it may take another September 11th for people to get their heads back on straight.
