This is the same amount of time that Bush had between his inaugoration and the 9/11 attacks. I just don't get the logic.
There is none.

We are no longer safe. The Obama administration is weakening our defenses, and not committed to fighting terrorism. Victory is a word he is "uncomfortable with" (his words).

Expect another attack on America. Only the next one, as promised, will be worse than 9/11. And you can thank Obama.
Weren't there a number of Orange alerts when Bush was President? I seem to distinctly remember the Homeland Security threat meter being raised a few times.

You forgot that he's an illegal alien! I think he eats puppies also.

Jesus, what complete nonsense. How in the world do you know that "our enemies are moving against us"? You know more than Obama? How do you know that our defenses are "weakening"? Do you work at the Pentagon or the NSA? George Bush fought "terrorism" for 8 years and LOST. What in the world makes you think that a "war on terrorism" can be any more effective than a "war on Dixie Racism" for instance? What about the enormous rise of street gangs in this country during Bush's terms? How about that threat?

Conservatives have become conjecture crybabies.

Feel better now that you got that off your chest? Now that you are rid of those untruths maybe you will be able to see that you are wrong all all counts.

I think some of these people actually WANT another terrorist attack.
