I think we are all intelligent enough to understand that terrorism isn't just a 9/11 event. I would even bet that we all agree that more needs to be done. What we don't agree on is whether or not anything has actually been done to make us safer, or if our methods of fighting terrorism are even remotely effective or just making the problem worse.
How does failing to secure the border make us safer? How did not securing the explosives when we invaded Iraq make us safer? How does turning Iraq into a theocracy make us safer? How does not catching Bin Laden make us safer? How does diverting homeland security funding make us safer?
