It didn't go over my head, you smug cunt, I just didn't feel the need to address it since it's the same line of garbage that's been repeated ad nauseum by the left since the "War on Terror" began.

Of course we have to discard those statistics. Otherwise your assertion that the war has been an "utter failure" would seem less credible.

So.. what? What would
your solution be, exactly? Ignore it? If you can't win permanently don't bother at all? The Clinton administration practically ignored terrorism for 8 years and we still had 9/11.
