I'm pretty sure Spidey said "Obama," not Bu-bu-bu-BOOOOSH!We're fighting them over there so we don't have to fight them over here, no?
Mission Accomplished.
Try to keep up.
The fact of the matter is that we have been VERY successful in preventing the most dangerous of our enemies from ever reaching our shores. We're hunting and fighting them on hundreds of fronts around the world every single day. The few who have gotten through our nets are assclowns compared to the evil bastards we've buried six feet under overseas. Most of them simply got lucky. Even so, we've stopped most of them as well.
I'm also not sure what Spidey's point was. The terrorist threat is eternal, regardless of who becomes President. There will always be X number of attacks, attempts, or plots against us, even on our own soil. This fact is something all of us need to accept and live with for the rest of our lives. We also need to ensure our own children grow up with a proper respect and awareness of the threats that exist. Please note that I don't support the "let's all freak out and hide under our beds" paranoia that swept our nation right after 9/11, but we do need to stick with the fight for the long haul and never take our eyes off the ball again.
Ever vigilant.
