The demonization and fear mongering of "the enemy" done by them has brought this about. You are an excellent example of how effective they were. Fear mongering is easy, it's common knowledge among pols that it is the easiest control technique. I know; you don't think 9/11 had anything to do with it. You have informed us that we should not have retaliated against the extremist Muslims. You have told us that we should not have gotten in WWII because we weren't "attacked" on our homeland (just never mind that we were attacked at Pearl and they were sinking our merchant ships off our own coasts). In fact, there is no war that is worthy in your mind, of us defending ourselves. Just let 'me take us. Well, for those of us with common sense, this unbridled, ignorant pacifism doesn't cut. The world is a dangerous place and only an idiot takes the Obama view that if you're nice to these guys they'll be nice to you.

The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it. Albert Einstein
