Keep up Bruce. You're quote was incomplete.

I lived through the cold war! I learned to "duck and cover" watching films on A bombs at school! I participated in drills with my family where the air raid sirens went off and we all marched to the shelter in the local school's basement. I looked at plans of back yard air raid shelters my dad was considering buying.

Terrorism is a pitiful basis for fearmongering. I'm more at risk every time I pull out of my driveway. Why doesn't the chimp declare a "war on auto collisions"?

Iraq was no threat then, and is no threat in the future if we pull out. It had NOTHING to do with 9/11 and is not any part of the forgotten "war on terror". If they hurt us, we can glaze them like a doughnut.
