Will you say, “I told you so”?

When the next major terrorist attack happens in the USA, will you say, “I told you so”?

What will you say?

You may as well get the practice in while you can.

I'll probably be saying "what can I do to help the survivors?". I have a funny feeling if it happens on a Democrat's watch, there will be a huge chorus of "I told you so" coming from the right. Will you be one of them?

Your question implies that there will be another major terrorist attack in the US. Which means that we're not necessarily safer here than we were 5 years ago. Which means that "Homeland Security" needs to actually do something to secure the homeland. You know ... ports, airports, those kind of things.

No. Why would I say that? What would I say? I'd say let's go back to catching these criminals and locking them up instead of invading random countries for their oil, and creating more terrorists, and try to find the courage to not live in fear.

No country can guarantee 100% safety from terrorism. Israel can't do it, why would we think can do it here? Our homegrown variety is bad enough, too. I'm surprised we haven't had more beltway snipers, anthrax mailers and abortion clinic bombers, but I have only compassion for the victims.

I love the way the modern leftists have choosen to start including "homegrown" into the terrorist domain.... BTW, abortion clinic bombers generally aren't doing it because they hate the U.S. and its foreign policy, likwise with beltway snipers. However, since we're including them, might as well include anyone that's ever murdered someone on U.S. soil, what a horrible terrorist ridden country we live in!!!!

Leftists? Hardly. The republicans started branding folks with the terrorist label as soon as possible, i.e., the folks burning H2's as eco-terrorists. In my book, having been in DC for some of the time it was going on, the beltway sniper was a terrorist. Likewise for folks bombing abortion clinics and mailing anthrax.

If there's another terrorist attack on U.S. soil, it will be a proud day for Al Qaeda's winner of the Recruiter of the Year, George W. Bush.

Meanwhile, people who love America (as you know, they're called Liberals) will do what they always have done: roll up there sleeves and start cleaning up the mess.

If the mess is the usual affair you could easily add "Republican" mess. Like failed international diplomacy, worst budget deficit in history, 'broken country' at each other's throats, Yes, they will once again f**k it up and then just leave the mess for 'mommy'.

Language, please!

Wash your mouth out with soap this instant!

Curious that after 6 years of total Republican control of the country, our resident schizophrenic still thinks a putative terrorist attack would be the fault of the liberals, who he cannot name without adding an obscene epithet.

Somebody needs to get back on his meds.
