Yesterday, Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff told the editorial board of The Chicago Tribune that he had a "gut feeling" about a new period of increased risk. This is the guy responsible for the security of our nation and he's relying on intuition? Of course, since he's admitted to giving up securing our borders, one doesn't have to be psychic to predict the odds are pretty good we're going to get hit.
Chertoff said he is convinced that terrorists are regrouping. "Our edge is technology and the vigilance of the ordinary citizen." He urged Americans to be watchful for suspicious activities in the wake of recent terror incidents in England and Scotland. However, when the ordinary citizen gets involved he's either threatened with lawsuits for profiling or branded as a racist vigilante, all with the government's approval.
It will take the ordinary citizen to save this nation by getting rid of worthless government officials like Chertoff and pernicious politicians like Kennedy and Kyl. Government is like anything else, garbage in, garbage out. It's time to begin throwing out the trash.
