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.
Feds Issue Terror Bulletin on Stadiums, Hotels | NBC Philadelphia

"Federal counterterrorism officials issued new memos about terrorist interest in attacking sports stadiums, entertainment complexes and hotels, citing al-Qaeda's longstanding desire to strike at large public gatherings.

"The FBI and Homeland Security Department sent two bulletins Monday to police around the country but said they know of no specific plots and did not mention the ongoing high-profile investigation of a possible terrorist plot involving a Colorado man and associates in New York City."

All sorts of accusations that Obama has made us vulnerable to a terrorist attack but no specifics of what he has done to make us vulnerable.

YOU said he has no love for America, WHY should I waste time trying to explain anything to one with such an obviously mis-guided, biased, closed mind?

First, YOU explain, something FACTUAL that says he has no love for America, NOT just something that makes you whine because it isn't YOUR choice.

The Bush administration took security warnings seriously. Obama does not.
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaa, Haaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaa!! Ha!

I suspect the real threat is coming from tinfoil hats. Good golly, Miss Molly, those things are pointy!

Though I have one, I don't watch it much ... hardly anything on worth watching anymore

At any rate, if I were to be watching, and I saw something I thought was newsy, then I might post something to the effect of;

"Hey, I just saw this on TV" ...

know what I mean? ..

Does anybody see how ridiculous these warnings are or is it just me?The first statement falls under the category of no $ hit sherlock,like they would come into my nake of the woods in the country.They would kill more animals then humans.Of course they would attack where large amount of people congregate DEEEEEEE D DEEEEEEE!!!!!
The second comment is a tie on ignorance with the first, " we know of no specific plots" but we want to put out a terror alert.These alerts just make Americans paranoid,do you want to live your life like that?They also said to look out for people carrying back packs,that could be a lot of people.
Two things I consider is we do not even watch our own borders are they really protecting you as well as they should?And it is impossible to protect 380 million people to begin with.We could be attacked again but I am not going to be paranoid my whole life of people carrying back packs.
Enjoy life,be happy,you could get hit by a bus tomorrow.

Who said I hated Bush? I thought he was incompetent, but didn't hate the man. Thanks for the assumption though.
