First the shoe bomber and now the unerwear bomber. What's next, the crotch exploder? One thing you can count on, is the Republicans getting their collective thongs in a wad over this. Of course it isn't really about the Christmas day jock strap hijacker but rather about trying in some way to paint the Democrats and President Obama as weak on terrorist and the continuing fight against the bad guys. It is funny to consider the attempts mentioned above and to also note that either nut job would have most likely done more harm to themselves than to the others that were supposed to be hurt. I wish we were capable of joining together and being reasonable on the issue of National defense and safety but instead, we are too busy fund raising and trying to demonize the other side. How can one justify using the struggle against terrorism as a political football? To do so is to wish harm on the Country and our fellow man for political gain. Let's remember, you can not declare war on a tactic...terrorism and the war on terror is a "war" that can not be won but can be better contained.
