Rep. Peter King (R-NY), when asked by George Stephanopoulos for one recommendation President Obama could implement that would make the country safer, suggested, "One main thing would be, just himself, to use the word 'terrorism' more often."
Rep. King, ranking Republican on the House Homeland Security Committee, no doubt has thought long and hard about the threat posed by those who would employ terrorist tactics against the United States. Perhaps we should all take his recommendation to heart.
Terrorism, terrorism, terrorism, terrorism. There. I feel safer already.

Hi David!
ReplyDeleteJust wanted you to know that I've finally settled into your blog and you have me smiling on this post! It is great seeing you from afar virtually and reading some of your thoughts. I've attempted to blog a bit this past year as my educational life changed... but I find I'm not great at giving the time needed to be thoughtful through my fingers. My mind is so busy jumping and so impulsive... that I get anxious at where my ramblings lead. Back to you... I see you love to travel... so feel free to visit Charlottesville, VA sometime. We have loads of wineries here in the beautiful Piedmont and I'm happy to unfold a futon for you. I would love to stay connected to our childhood memories.
