Jack DaBamb

It just seems to me that the idea that we "fight them over there" so we don't have to "fight them over here" is fundamentally weak. It's like saying “We'll have the party at the neighbors house because I just got my furniture arranged the way I like it. Now be a sugar and bring my semi-automatic high-powered disabled bird stabilizer. I want to exercise my morality before I go back to engineering righteousness.”

I think what we learned on September 11th was that Americans will not be terrorized on our own soil - or in our skys. We would vote to take down our own plane ourselves rather than let a madman possibly kill thousands more. That is just day one. The tip of the iceberg. We love our home and we will protect and defend it.

That is the message I believe we should be sending the terrorist: in OUR country, freedom wins.

Our current posture in Iraq is a primary factor in the problem manifest. We say the very fabric of our own security is threatened, yet presently our National Guard is occupied with far away affairs. If changing the posture will demonstrably help everybody, what is the hold up? Ego?

What right really do we have to go "over" anywhere and declare American Martial Law? Iraq is no threat. Iran is no threat. How fucking fragile is our republic if these little skeeters can bring us down? And again, if it really is so fucking fragile and fucking precious, shouldn't the fucking Army be here to hella fucking defend it?

If I saw a terrorist on the cable car I would act. I know I'm not the only liberal faggot San Franciscan who would. It seems that any average American is braver than the entire executive branch and their cronies combined. Mr. President, ENOUGH ALREADY.

It aught to be a crime to district all our minds from the truth at hand and our happiness plans. Truth is life.
