The War on Terror is OVER. We WON.
Congratulations to the American people -- we have officially "won" the War on Terror.

I AM NOT AFRAID.

There is no room for fear. Big Bad Osama and his Mighty Minions hold no sway over me and mine. He does not control me.

I AM NOT AFRAID.

My family does not cower in corners worrying about Scary Foreign People. We laugh and break bread with people of many nations as friends.

WE ARE NOT AFRAID.

My community works, shops and bickers over sports events just like we used to do before 9/11. We have less money to do so, our jobs are less secure, and our bills are higher, but these are part of the daily tribulations of life, and we do not cower from them.

WE ARE NOT AFRAID.

My soldiers fight to live in a faraway place, and come home in pieces. They are used as living bait in the emotional battles that are fought by those who didn't get the memo:

WE ARE NOT AFRAID. THE WAR ON TERROR IS OVER. WE WON.

No, I am NOT AFRAID. I AM OFFICIALLY RIGHTEOUSLY PISSED OFF.

There is no room for fear. The merchants and money changers have set up shop in the temple of democracy, and must be driven out.

I AM NOT AFRAID.

The War on Terror is Over. The Battle for Liberty has Begun.

IMPEACHMENT!!! IMPEACHMENT!!! IMPEACHMENT!!!

2. RPO?
Is that the same as the "politically correct" righteous indignation?
If so, I'm in!!!!! If not, I'm in!!!!

9. Maybe YOU won, but Bush SURRENDERED.
In fact, Terror occupies all of Washington DC. The landing craft moved in around the end of September 2002 and Terror disembarked. You can't cross a street or spit in the Potomac without hitting Terror. Terror was so pleased at this quick capitulation that 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue became the occupying Terror Army's headquarters.

In fact, like all occupying armies, Terror settled in. Most people in Washington were pretty used to rubbing elbows with Terror on a daily basis. The press and the politicians got used to bowing down to Terror. That is, until Terror started to abuse the residents, dragging people into the darkness and leaving them in the alleys, bloody and bruised. That's why you're seeing a reaction against the American surrender to Terror in the press these days. It isn't a big reaction - it doesn't pay to anger Terror too much - but it's at least something besides bowing and scraping to Terror.
