OzmO, I know 240 is your hero but don't you think it is funny that he said people voted Dem because they feel safe but won't give the Bush administration any credit for this purported feeling of safety?
Whoa dude. I was just asking a question for info that might shed some light on this.
240, aside from his CT stuff, is very informed on political issues and can back up nearly anything he says. Whether you agree with him or not on his conclusions you can't deny that.
He was making an assertion that when people feel they are threatened they look to a republican to do what's needed. When they feel safe they look to a democrat to fix domestic issues.
We have been in the new "terror alert world" since 9/11. We don;t feel as safe as we did pre-9/11.
Are we safer? I believe so.
Are we safe as we could be? Hell no. We are so open to attack it is scary. That's why i don;t think the threat is what it made up to be at the moment. I think BUSH's move on Afghanistan did much to quell this however i think his move on Iraq made matters worse. But still overall we are in good shape.
