Tom, the problem is, I believe, that we have not seen any alternative and viable plans from any other but the Administration on how to deal with terrorism. BUT we certainly have heard lots and LOTS of criticism. In the face of no other viable plans, but just criticism, I certainly don't think that everyone is on the same page. But rather, are just trying to politicize a very bad situation.

As for as one Nuke destroying America. No, I don't think one will do it. 5 or 10 would certainly have a terrible impact, for sure. But I think the think we all should think about is: what direction is the prevailing wind and the wind layers under that....? Where would the nuke debris head? How many cities would have fallout and possibly be quarantined? What would happen to our interstate commerce and travel? How and who would fix the infrastructure destroyed? And etc etc etc.

As I've said many times, and no one seems to want to quibble with, I think bio weapons are MUCH more dangerous to MANY more of us. They can, and will, cause destruction all over the earth if there is a coordinated effort to try to do it....
