Reply #53: War on terror not war in Iraq. Gregory is right the two are not the same

[stray cat]

I am pro-increasing security at home, I think inspecting shipments and good police work and communication is essential to try to minimize acts against civilians by anyone. I think a good public health surveilance and quick disaster relief and response is important not only for hurricanes but potential terrorist acts. I think individuals do sometimes kill civilians in massive numbers and that some people are looking for ways to do it.

Any candidate who doesn't believe terrorism can occur in the U.S. and is not willing to take the possibility seriously will never get my vote.

That said - Bush's war on terror is propaganda and the war in Iraq is a fiasco.
