While I do believe that the terror rankings are more often than not used politically by this administration, I do applaud the capture and ultimate downfall of the terrorist plot yesterday, if in fact there truly was one.

I am so jaded anymore, to be honest I don't know what to believe from my government anymore, and that saddens me. When I can no longer trust the government to protect me honestly and without political and partisan one upsmanship, it tells me that neither side truly cares what happens as long as their side comes out looking better. Pathetic way to run the country, don't you think?

And the Right can point fingers at the Left and vice versa..... BUT neither side fucking changes and puts the good of the people ahead of the power of their party. How truly sad.

It's like this thread, instead of offering up a true debate the Right attacks. If they have nothing to truly add then why post?

If this is paranoia then why not allow those posting to say their piece and see what happens?

But the Right have this obsession with having to post the same right winged rah-rah in every thread and not debate or add anything of true substance.

And the Left, instead of being happy noone died in the plot, want to come up with whatever they can to try to get yesterday's arrests nullified because it may help the Right somehow.

HEY ZEUS FREAKING CRISPIES..... I thought ultimately we were on the same team.... to better the lives of the people, to keep America strong and to show that FREEDOM is the best deterrent to any enemy. I guess I am wrong.... I guess this is a country of "Fuck Bush and his power grabs" or "Fucking Left would rather give the country to the terrorists".

How sad..... Instead of saying proudly I am a citizen of the greatest country to ever grace this planet...... I now have to choose a side and be labelled.

Maybe if we keep driving this partisan wedge between ourselves and our country, and we don't get anything done.... the terrorists won't have to bomb or come up with plots..... we'll do it to ourselves just to prove the other side is wrong.
