McCain has the 65% ACU rating which is more centrist than Obama's 92% Liberal Rating.

That's a fact. Do the math.
Wow... I should vote for a President based on how the American Conservative Union rates them? What if I'm not a conservative? What if I'm intelligent enough to realize that any rating by so biased a source is merely going to be twisted in such a way as to "recommend" their pre-determined choice?

I'm a Ronald Reagan type of gal, you know that.
You mean a big-government, intrusive extra-Constitutional federal government Republican?

Has there been another homeland attack since Bush started the global war on terror?
LOL @ specious reasoning.

Has there been an invasion from Mars? Does the fact that there hasn't been a Martian invasion mean that President Bush's administration is doing a good job keeping Martians at bay, or is the lack of a Martian army on our soil due to some other reason, like, say, Mars not supporting life?

When people like you can learn to distinguish between "correlation" and "causation", the world will be a better place.

Quote:
When we keep war off our own homeland we extract several terrorists cells to join their cohorts where they need support in other parts of the world.
Do you have any evidence to support that statement, or is it just more conservative talking point nonsense? One thing there IS evidence of: Bush's own CIA cohorts say that the war in Iraq has strengthened the recruiting of Al-Queda (and in fact created a whole new wing of their organization that didn't exist when Saddam Hussein had the entire nation under his brutal yet highly controlling government)

Quote:
Do you really think another homeland attack will not happen?
I'm not worried about it. Then again, unlike fear-mongering Bush supporters, I'm a logical, thinking human being.

Case in point: It is statistically MUCH more likely that I will die of a lightning strike than by a foreign terrorist attack on American soil.

Quote:
Why would anyone want to appease terrorists?
Why would anyone want to _______________ terrorists? Place anything in the blank. The point of terrorism is to draw attention to a cause. President Mentally Challenged and his minions have done more to draw attention to the cause of Islamic radicalism than a 9/11 every month could possibly hope to do.

Their chief complaint: We meddle in M.E. affairs.
Our answer to that complaint: We meddle in M.E. affairs by overthrowing the government of a sovereign nation who had not attacked us.

Yeah, that's brilliant.

How can you fight a war against a tactic? There has always been terrorism and there always will be.


Don't forget... Lawyers were writing the Constitution while doctors were still bleeding people with leeches...
