Who should we be more worried about...
the terrorist over there or the terrorists over here that live among us everyday. From, what I can see the crime level is up in america in more ways than one and bush tells us to worry about the terrorists. In some, cases I can't distinguish one from the other.

5. It was Jesus that said
Be not afraid of him that can destroy the body, be afraid of him that can destroy the soul.

And whether religious and spiritual or not there is still a lot of wisdom in that saying.
The terrorist that kills you is less of a problem than the one that puts a chain around your neck because as a slave you serve his needs and purposes. A dead body has no such value and the terrorist knows this as well.
But if he can create enough fear in you he can make you a slave. Which of course is his goal

6. Wise words
If we become a nation of sniveling slaves who willingly give up our Constitution, bin Laden and al Qaeda have won.

7. I did not say I was afraid...
my point is that the bush adm wants us to be afraid of terrorists. Why should we be afraid of the terrorists he wants us to be afraid of when there are many people or things that we could worry about or be afraid of in this country,. In other words, Bush is full of it...
