Bullying does not make American Safer

The simple fact is that there is no such thing as safe....not in this world. 

Bullies always believe they are making themselves and those on their team safer with their swaggering, trash-talking, aggression and such. All the while they are making life-long enemies and causing their allies to wince and doubt them. 

Those who stand with bullies them are far less safe than they would be otherwise. Sooner or later, people get fed up with bullies.


Frank Rich: 

The harrowing truth remains unchanged from what it was before Cheney emerged from his bunker to set Washington atwitter. The Bush administration did not make us safer either before or after 9/11. Obama is not making us less safe. If there’s another terrorist attack, it will be because the mess the Bush administration ignored in Pakistan and Afghanistan spun beyond anyone’s control well before Americans could throw the bums out.
