On the contrary, their actions only serve to weaken our standing in the world, embolden our enemies and (by unnecessarily deploying our military around the globe) leave us more vulnerable to attack.
3. IF:
a) The terrorists hate us for our constitution and our bill of rights (our freedoms) and;
b) As a direct result of attacking us they're able to cause our government to revoke, alter or restrict our freedoms,
THEN:
c) Those responsible for our current domestic policy cannot be trusted to keep America safe from the ultimate goal of terrorism. On the contrary, they do the bidding of the terrorists when they, through the legislative process, "revoke, alter or restrict" the freedoms they have a constitutional duty to defend.
Having made these points, it's clear Al Qaeda and their handful of followers are gaining the most from the war in Iraq, the loss of goodwill toward America and the erosion of our founding principles here at home. Since those responsible for these polices have no intention of changing their approach (despite their history of being wrong on nearly everything) I think it's fair to say: A vote to "stay the course" is a vote to weaken America and empower its enemies. The time is long past due to "cut and run" from those who've led our country astray.
