As usual, Schumer isn't paying attention. Does he think that IF we knew there were "al-Qaeda camps" now, this minute, that we wouldn't be bombing them????? He should know that Al-Q doesn't have camps as we know them. Cripes, Schumer was a Senator under Clinton. Did he call for the A-Q training camps of yesteryear to be bombed???? No, he hid his head with the rest of the dodo birds, and scratched the sand, doing nothing to stop the coming 9-11. The absolute worst thing for our troops is to have idiots like Schumer and Reid in charge of the military. At any level. In defense of Senator Reid's declaration that the Iraq War is "lost," Senator Charles Schumer's (D-NY) stated aim of a U.S. role "more focused on terrorism" calls for the bombing of any "al-Qaeda camps" that would arise.

Edwards: Move Past 'War on Terror' May 23 11:36 AM US/Eastern By BETH FOUHY Associated Press Writer NEW YORK (AP) - Democrat John Edwards Wednesday repudiated the notion that there is a "global war on terror," calling it an ideological doctrine advanced by the Bush administration that has strained American military resources and emboldened terrorists. breitbart.com If we think we have troubles now, wait till Edwards is elected or is still left in the Senate.......... The article linked to this post ends with ---and most of us see it coming. This begs the obvious question: If U.S. political leadership currently lacks the will to confront and defeat al-Qaeda terrorists where they mass to confront us in the battlefields of Iraq, what confidence can the American people possibly derive that the current Congressional leadership can muster the will to defeat them elsewhere? And elsewhere they will certainly be. The national security consequences could be grave.
