<<In this first month of the long campaign, the Democrats as a group have decided that the principal challenges facing the nation are right here at home -- jobs, education, health care, the environment -- while Bush is profoundly convinced that the most serious threats lie abroad. "I know that some people question if America is really in a war at all," Bush said. "They view terrorism more as a crime, a problem to be solved mainly with law enforcement and indictments. . . . [But] after the chaos and carnage of September the 11th, it is not enough to serve our enemies with legal papers. The terrorists and their supporters declared war on the United States, and war is what they got." >> Broder mushed together two separate questions. One is how serious the threat is. The other is whether it's a war or a legal matter. It can be a war yet not much of a threat. And it can be a legal action yet a serious threat. Sloppy thinking.
