Heya OC. :2wave: Did you mean just within the Physical US?

Yeah. I didn't even talk about the rest around the world, including areas where US citizens and troops were targeted.

Navy (is once again wrong as usual) on his claim. Remember, whatever Navy says or predicts, the opposite will happen.
 
I want to be kept as safe as we were under the Bush Administration where we had zero attacks after 9/11.

Except for the anthrax attacks.

EDIT: I see someone already beat me to it. Honestly, sometimes it's like these people live on another planet.

I want to be kept as safe as we are, if we exclude inconvenient attacks. Limiting it to after 9/11 is ****ing hilarious. Just ignore the elephant in the room...
 
We should not let fear of terrorists affect our foreign policy.

Oh, I'm not afraid of them, I have no problem killing them, I just don't think we should be going after them, then spending billions putting their nations back together better than before, so they can attack us again. That's all we do and it's stupid.

So not very safe at all considering the list of terrorist attacks on the US homeland is significant between 2001 and 2009 and the number targeting US citizens and soldiers overseas is massive.

I am talking about attacks on the USA mainland and Clinton has to accept part of the blame for 2001. I have no clue what your talking about in 2009. Truth is after 2001 we had zero attacks under President Bush where we have numerous attacks under Obama.

Zero attacks under Bush? What are you talking about....oh....only the biggest foreign attack on US Soil on 911......doh!

The folks here have listed numerous attacks on the mainland post-9/11. I'll add another, anyone remember the DC snipers?
 
As for the poll, an easy yes. We'll never stop every single terrorist attack but I have no doubt that the Obama Administration, and the Bush/Clinton/Bush/Reagan/Carter/etc. Admins do work hard to prevent and thwart as many terrorist plots as they reasonably can. Sometimes tragedy strikes, sometimes our 20/20 hindsight will lead us some important yet overlooked footnote, but I have no reason to believe our presidents and our military and law enforcement as a whole are honestly malevolent or purposefully neglectful when it comes to the job of vigilance against those who wish to do us harm.

Truth is Obama has not added to the debt, if you don't count the money he added to the debt. That is as sensible as not counting 9/11 when discussing terror attacks under Bush.

This is laughably stupid. The idea that we had no attacks under Bush after 9/11 is fallacious to the core.

Bush was president for 6 months when 9/11 happened. Your guy has been Prez for almost 5 years..........He is the Teflon president he never takes the blame for anything that happens unless its good.

You always make excuses instead of accepting responsibility...

If you believe that I have some waterfront property in Arizona I would love to sell you.

LOL......who was President in January, February and March? Sorry Charlie.....911 happened on your clown's watch despite your attempts to change history and redeem his failed legacy.

Do you have a reading problem............Clinton could have taken Bin Laden in the nineties when Sudan offered him on a silver platter and he was to busy getting BJs in the oval office.
