in reading this post and the invocation of Presidnet Lincoln, I am reminded of a quote of Lincoln's from the days before his presidency.
In 1838 as an Illinois state legislator he said,
At what point shall we expect the approach of danger? By what means shall we fortify against it? Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant, to step the Ocean, and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest; with a Buonaparte for a commander, could not by force, take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years. At what point, then, is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.
How sad that the transatlantic giant Lincoln declared would never come here was but 19 men, although as he predicted the killers came from within. They preyed on the weakness that certain members of our ruling class perpetuated. Now those same people try to subvert the President in wartime to finish the suicide. Lincoln must surely be gyrating in his tomb.

Damn straight Juan-o, damn straight.
Of course keeping with that theme now the AP is reporting that intelligence indicates an attack WILL come this summer and it is expected that the Islamofacists will hit harder than last time. And all the while JFKerry and the cancerous moral relativists of the leftwing blissfully go about their ways of hating our President with nothing constructive to offer to save us.
They hate the Patriot Act.
They hate fighting the war on terror.
They hate national defense.
They hate the military.
They hate the CIA and FBI.
They hate republicans.
They hate family values.
They hate the CinC.
One can only assume that they hate the freedom that all of the above are insuring, defending and perpetuating.
Its amazing how far the democrats of JFKerry have devolved from the party of JFK (who was not all the great himself).
I wonder the affect on the election of the following scenarios:
1. A successful terrorist attack anytime after labor day where 5,000plus patriotic Americans bite it.
2. W stops a terrorist attack after his military uncovers the missing WMDs in Iraq as al Qaeda is loading them in a shipping container bound for San Fran.
3. W captures bin Laden.
4. There is a successful terrorist attack on (a) London or (b) Paris (if God wills it, PTL).
For your benefit below is an incomplete map of the Islamic terror network in the US. Pray your hometown ain't on it. Yet.
