what they would do to fight global terrorism. All they focus on is Iraq. Why?

Because as usual, they have no answers, they just complain to get elected knowing they haven't got a clue on how to fix things.

Most do not talk about it. John Edwards said terrorism is a bumper sticker. He does not say this every day. Non-candidate John Kerry said Bush is trying to scare people by saying that Bin Laden's Al Queda and Al Queda in Iraq have the same goals of attacking America. I saw non-candidate Michael Moore on TV say "There is no terror threat." The dems have no solutions. Only a tactic of Bash Bush. I would like to hear the candidates, other than Edwards, say anything about terror. P.S. They just announced a drop in insurgent attacks in Iraq. Insurgents wear t-shirts with a capital I and AQ if Al Queda. Michael Moore is selling t-shirts to these groups.

Really, they should be focusing on what is affecting the U.S. and not what is "global". There are many other issues on the "home-front" that are in need of attention. I.e Budget, welfare, Foreign relations. We have so many allies and enemies angry that there may never be any resolve.
This "party" bull is for the birds it is splitting the country in two. it will be our ultimate demise. How about we find a leader that is capable as a leader of a nation in all aspects of the duty. We would rather elect one that will "lead" us in multiple directions. We are just spread too thin. lead us in one direction and leave everyone else alone. There are reasons for cultural boundaries. RESPECT THEM!!! They have oil? Buy it. don't steal it... They have guns? Let them!!! We allow our underlings the bare arms, why should any other militia be different? Because of their Deity, race, ethnic and or ethic belief? if you take any of that into consideration, then you've been brainwashed! Either by your parents or the "Nazi like" Propaganda spewed by the government or your local church organizations. We are just a few steps away from being no better than Third Reich of pre-war Nazi Germany. But your right, the dem. are doing nothing to stop or slow this transformation. Nor is anyone else at that, and your feeding right into that bull cocky. You'll feel pretty used and stupid when the truth comes out...

Oh they are talking about it.
They have no solutions because they know they would have to fight them in an ugly war.
Runaway is not the solution or appeasement.
People have forgotten we got the invite to this war on 9/11.
We didn't declare war on Muslim terrorism they declare war on us.
Denial of that is only going to make matters worse.

Becuase the premise for going into Iraq was a lie. Saddam was totally contained. If the people in Iraq wanted a change, they could have stepped up to the plate and got it done. Beside, Osama is not in Iraq. Had we spent the money to nad Osama instead of nation building, it would be over except for the shouting.

The reason for this is to diminish any of the progress made by the present administration. The Democrats believe they can win by degradation. But, Abraham Lincoln, in his wisdom stated, "You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong!"

Because that is where our young men are dieing and there is no end in sight unless we do something about it. We are not fighting terrorism in Iraq, we are in the middle of a civil war between Sunni and Shiites. If you cannot see that you are the village idiot.

Iraq is in such a chaos that it became terrorist's Disneyland (whereas there were no terrorsists in it before the war!!)... it became their new training camp... if the bush administration had concentrated the troups in afghanistan since 2001(instead of invading Iraq for oil) they would have already found Ossama, and destroyed the talibans...whereas the talibans are still active, Ossama not found, and a a bigger and more central training field available for terrorists!! so yes, Iraq is now a central issue in the war against terrorism, and the big question is, how to withdraw without increasing the terrorist risk?
