Tora! Tora! Tora! ? If you replace Pearl Harbor with the Twin Towers and watched the movie, then you could see the striking similarities in all the mistakes we are making now. We are only serious about politics, not serious about terrorism.

This is a deliberate step on a planned progression into "the executive" ruling under terms of undeclared "marshall law". Your argument attempts to justify suspension of due process and the bill of rights. If suspension of "some rights" is required...because we're at war....why stop at "some rights".
Why not argue to simply, "trust the president"....suspend the congress, exclude the courts from any interference with what "the decider", decides. After all, he's made us safer, and he's been right, most of the time, Right????
