"As I've watched the events of the last few days it is clear once again that President Obama is trying to pretend we are not at war. He seems to think if he has a low key response to an attempt to blow up an airliner and kill hundreds of people, we won't be at war."

Let's look at the facts DICK.
1. It was Dick and Bush who let the guys who planned this attack go.
2. Obama's "low key response" has been sending 30000 more troops to fight in Afghanistan, taking out very high value targets in Pakistan, and launching recent strikes in Yemen.
3. GWB waited 6 days before addressing a nearly identical incident and Dems didn't use the attempted mass murder of hundreds of Americans to undermine the presidency.
4. It was Dick and Bush who handed the current mess over to Obama after 8 years of complete failure.

The man is a pathetic coward, disgrace, mass murderer, torturer, liar, fearmonger, and a jackass who got drunk while hunting and shot his friend...
