Great post by Bill Hobbs deconstructing John Kerry's policy statement on fighting terror and how he has no plan except tighten our defenses at home and gamble that we can catch terrorists as they approach our borders.

After reading the criticism though, I thought that it perhaps isn't fair - that this is Kerry's domestic preparedness strategy only, and he's looking to improve it. Then, prompted by a comment on Hobb's blog I noticed that the plan was for fighting terror "at home and abroad". There's just no "abroad" in the whole policy.

Kerry's policy - have federal workers spot check a little more of what comes into this country and hope the firefighters and EMS have enough time to rescue the wounded after the bombs go off.

Regardless, I don't want to sit back and play defense.

917 days terror free and counting.......
