But when the country gets in trouble, it's time to call the military.
But Barack Obama thinks, as did Bill Clinton, that terrorism is a law enforcement issue. That unfortunate mindset made the success of the 9/11 attacks possible. Since September 11, 2001, there have been no al-Qaeda attacks on American soil.
From The Hill:
The campaign of Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) on Tuesday accused Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama (Ill.) of being “naïve” and “representing the perfect manifestation of a Sept. 10 mindset” in his approach on how to treat suspected terrorists being held at Guantanamo Bay.
As the war of words between the two presidential campaigns is escalating, McCain advisers and surrogates unleashed some of their harshest language yet in describing Obama.
On a conference call with reporters, former CIA chief James Woolsey and others said Obama’s policy regarding the handling of terrorism suspects would create an opening for more attacks like those on Sept. 11, 2001.
More...
In an interview with ABC News, Obama referenced the first World Trade Center attack in 1993, and stated that it had not been necessary to put those responsible in a detention facility like Guantanamo but instead in U.S. prisons.
The guy is naïve.
