Flame

So who will you blame?

I'm truly convinced that sometime after the election, possibly after the inauguration of whichever candidate wins, that we will once again be the target of a major terrorist attack. The possibilities are endless and it seems in keeping with the mindset of the terrorists to embarass the administration and keep our country as off-balance as they possibly can. I also think that it's probably next to impossible, unless our intelligence service has gotten a whole lot better or luckier, to stop most of the horrific scenarios. Our borders are too pourous, our targets too prolific. A great deal of our national guard is stationed overseas and we're spread dreadfully thin.

My question here is, given the two possible outcomes to the election, who are you going to blame for this attack if it happens? I certainly don't want to limit the blame just to Kerry or Bush in this quiz. I could see arguments going back to our propping up of the Shah of Iran if someone wanted to make the stretch.

Disclaimer for Homeland Security: I know of no plans. This is simple conjecture and an attempt to create political discourse on this board. I also hope sincerely that I'm flat out wrong. So, please don't waste your resources tapping my phone and reading my emails. You will quickly be bored.
