we should not feel over-confident that "it can't happen here." This is why it is imperative to keep a democrat in the WH.

He will make rational clear headed decisions while making sure we act on strong intelligence. I may disagree with the actions he ultimately takes but I will know he made what he thinks is the rest decision for peace.

I just love DU and its members! I'm wondering how this will change tomorrow night's debate and thank heavens it is with the Democrats! Otherwise, we'd perhaps be hearing nothing but drum beats. Interesting to see how our Dems will respond. No, I know we can't "negotiate" with terrorists, but what is this going to mean in the US? Thanks so much for the OP, randys1.
