17. But...are we safe?
What is it that we fear? (Not we - them)

Do we fear another trade tower attack? A biological attack? Nukes?

Well, if that is our fear, then tell us what our occupation in Iraq is doing to make us safer.

That is the question needing an answer: How do our soldiers make us any safer as they patrol the streets of some far off desert land?

Wouldn't they be better deployed patrolling airports, shipyards and the border? Wouldn't that make America safer?

As far as I am concerned, b**h can declare victory in Iraq. Then our soldiers can leave those poor people alone and the free market system can repair their cities with the trillions of $ we will send them.

We broke it: We bought it. Best we get the bull out of the china shop anyway we can.
