I am whatever it takes when clear thinking and speaking mind hiccups. Never is a word that Never, I mean very very seldom is used correctly. I have never used it incorrectly. And I still have never used it incorrectly. :-)

The question I wrestle with is does the scum worship go up because of the evil act of 9-11 compared with the increase of corrected mindset make America more or less dangerous or vulnerable.

I hope and I believe that the danger is far less.

It is also possible that 9-11 although horrific opened eyes and will prevent a future far more horrific act.

The problem is can vigilance be maintained decade after decade.

Now simply stated the first attack on Americans by terrorists showed the evil evolving to different methods and opportunity. That was decades ago. Second and third generation oil riches provided the mental fodder with cash to magnify the danger of the methods and opportunity.
