Just curious who the Bush-haters thank for the absence of terrorist attacks in the past four years.

Please don't try to say that people don't want to attack us, with the daily "death to America" threats and anti-american sentiment throughout the middle east and, sadly, Europe.

For this we have to commend Bush, the Republican majority congress, the Patriot Act, and the department of Homeland Security for a job well done! Kudos for keeping terrorist bastards out of our country and preserving our way of life.

If Bush & Co. have to wiretap some known terrorist associates without having to go through some red-tape court approval process, that's fine with me. If they want to hold enemy fighters captured in the battleground at a prison in Cuba with better facilities than the tents they lived in at home, that's fine with me.

I feel just as free in my country as I did before September 11. The only difference I see as a law abiding citizen is a slight inconvenience at the airport due to stricter security checks. Fact...if you aren't associating with suspected terrorists, you're not going to be bothered.

What attributed to this remarkable absence of terrorist attacks here? Bush haters, who do you thank?
