Was wondering your thoughts. Would this influence your vote - or other's vote? Should we be frightened & not vote for Bush, or pissed-off & vote for him all the more? :mad1: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/artic...-2004Oct27.html http://www.drudgereport.com/abct1.htm |

IMO, Whatever Al Q says should have absolutely no bearing on your vote. JackD |

More Arab Sabre rattling. They will or they won't attack. The words are just that, It's part of the Arab culture, along with wasting far more ammunition firing AK45's in the air than they ever do at enemies. :blah: :blah: :blah: IMHO, it was this bluster that helped convince Bush that Saddam was dangerous. But the bluster and the reality are only vaguely related.

I have to admit, for a moment it sparked some fear in me, and I thought "Maybe they would back off if we elected Kerry." Please forgive my weakness. |

I doubt that the AQ recognizes enough difference between the candidates to even care. Disruption of the process and the society it serves might be a goal, but the backfire potential is far to great. Best attitude is to ignore the threat and get on with life. |

The terrorist tape just underscores the danger we face with these crazy muslims. As long as we support the Jewish state we will face danger. The only reason they haven't set off a nuke is the lack of knowhow. It is only a matter of time until this knowledge is acquired and we face the immeasureable horror of the loss of a major city. Make no mistake, this is their intention, their goal, their life. These vipers have no redemption and must be killed. I share the saddness of the loss of some of our young soldiers in this fight but the homeland must be protected or our civilization is lost. Many in our country have short term memory loss and have forgotten 9-11 or are weak people and wish it all away but the reality speaks for itself. |

You're right, irongoat, we need to go after the terrorists, hunt them down and stop them. I too wish that was our focus in the Terror War. Not clear what Israel has to do with their avowed hatred of Western liberal democracy. |

I'd be pissed off and vote for someone that really killed somebody. Uh, not Hillary Clinton or Teddy Kennedy. Edit - to clarify my position I want to see some terrorist heads on the fence posts. I'll chip in for the cost of the fence posts. |

Do we doubt their ability to be that sophisticated? |

Hell, I haven't heard too many good arguments from Americans distinguishing the two candidates. |

Well, Chris, you're a "special" case.
