Each and every one of you have made legitimate comments. However, I am for all the coverage that I can get. If you really follow the story, you will realize that each day more information is released and the implications are growing faster than people can
comprehend. Bush is trying to get us used to the fact that in order to win (if that is even possible) we will pay with the lives of our service men and women. There most likely will be more civilians lost as terrorists continue to threaten our safety, our sense of freedom. We MUST be reminded that a very real danger exists each and every day. There are THOUSANDS of people who would see you dead merely because you are an American. Yes, go about your daily routine and yes, look ahead. (or else they really have won) However, it was that false sense of secutity that led us to this point. We are at war. It doesn't matter that a single shot hasn't been fired by us. There are "cells" all over this world. We have sleepers in our midst. We are at risk for biological attacks. Young men and women are being deployed at this very minute. If WE as AMERICANS lose our fury, and our indignation softens, what can we expect of the coalition we are trying to build? This was an attack on you and me and everyone who believes in FREEDOM! When you feel like you need a break, turn it off-rent a movie-turn to any multitude of viewing choices. Just remember at least you HAVE that freedom, and so many other "freedoms" as well. I pray God keeps you and yours safe. I thank God for the bravery of the men and women who serve our country in ANY capacity. Most of all, I pray for our future.
