'Let's Continue The Success of the Previous Adminstration'

Did I hear that correctly? Right at the end of this part of an interview of Joe Biden by Larry King did Biden say the current administration wishes to continue to have the success that the previous administration had on their efforts against terrorists?



Joe, Joe, Joe. Didn't you get the memo? All these problems are inherited and nothing done during the previous eight years is worthy of note or praise. They are going to send you to that undisclosed location again.

He does assert that another 9/11-style attack is unlikely, but I hope they don't think for one minute that some radicalized nutjob isn't out there plotting and planning it. There are plenty of Islamic jihadists who fancy themselves the next UBL, and while it is the suicide bombers who do the damage, it is the men behind them who warp their thinking and convince people to commit these acts of barbarism that are the threat.

People like the moderate imam who has figured in so many recent events like the Ft. Hood jihad attack and the attempted bombing of an airplane on Christmas day.

The guys with the bombs we have had pretty good success against. It is the guys who foster their actions that scare me and, quite frankly, I don't want to talk about prosecuting them or reading them their Miranda rights. I would rather they endure about 30 days of good old Medieval Inquisition-style torture and then be taken out back and shot.

But that's just me, and I tend to be a softy sometimes.
