What if...

Awhile back, before Katrina hit, I was listening to President Bush give a speech about our military efforts in Iraq, and something stuck me: We haven't had a substantial terrorist attack on our soil since Sept. 11, 2001. And I would bet the farm it's not for lack of trying or planning. How great is that?

One of Bush's focus points was the concept of "taking the war to them" after those hideous attacks. Originally "them" was Afghanistan and many people debate (which is healthy) where we took the war next. But to me, the bottom line seems to be that at least for us civilians living in the states, something is working because natural disasters aside, we have been safe. I'm not a military nor political expert and usually don't pretend to be in heated discussions (I usually assume the safe and understated "devil's advocate"), but what if that was the point all along?
