Reaction is Osama bin Laden's sword

     We need someone to remind us who we are. The Bush administration
     keeps telling us weâre safer than we were five years ago. I donât
     feel safer. Thereâs this huge sword swinging around. Our
     leadership, with all its display, is acting just like the terrorist
     wants us to act, then suggests we are dead wrong if we disagree. It
     makes all of us out to be acting just like the terrorist wants us
     to act. But weâre not that way. I watched the buildings burning on
     Sept. 11, and at some point got on email and messaged everybody I
     knew that we should think what the terrorists would want us to do,
     and then do the opposite thing. Nobody objected, or disagreed. So
     it doesnât take a rocket scientist to know how to fight a
     terrorist. We just all need to be brought together in this quiet,
     firm, fight, and quickly.

   full.
