A Few Thoughts by a Pacifist with a Gun...



We are no safer today than we were September 10, 2001.  This is no failure of a particular Presidential Administration; it is a failure of the American Intelligence community.

Pop culture would lead one to believe that American Intelligence is some mysterious space-aged web of loosely associated organizations, all known by initials and acronyms.

Nothing appears to be farther from the truth.  It is doubtful that the American Intelligence community could pour piss out of a boot reading the instructions on the heel.  While the Obama Administration cannot be blamed directly for recent breaches in United States security, he can be held responsible.  America could stand to be just a bit more paranoid and a little less smug in the pollyanna belief  that we are so well protected that the odds of a second 9/11 could no longer happen.  

We were shown different Christmas Eve and it was dumb-ass luck that we are not in shock now.
