JC is a problem to the extent that he does not organise for us an adequate defense from the sleazeball elements of Washington .... there are other, internal problems, for sure, but the biggie is the main threat, that we could lose this country to the sort who run that yellow pine lobby ..... it's time the majority stood back and looked at the big picture, realised the relative importance of various dangers and conditions, and got their priorities straight - Some bunch of goofballs thumping holy books do not directly threaten us, be they al Qaeda or the Gerry Falwells .... yes twenty-five of us died in New York, sure they could do in thousands of us in one of our cities sometime, but this does not and cannot threaten our existence, we're a lot bigger than that, more spread out, and stronger, we'd do something about it toot sweet ... presumably we're doing something about it now, though i'd like a little assurance on that Only a much greater power can be a real menace to us, though .... look around, where do you see overwhelming military and economic power in the hands of very few men .... uh-huh, you see ... we must defend this country, if we do not we will lose it .... it's time to rebuild our justified-warrior culture, the smart shock troops of the civilised nations we were not so long ago, we can do it again, we can start by tripling the defense budget
