The only terrorists that keep me in fear day and night are the ones in Washington. Talk about "Homegrown Terrorism" That's the only phrase that gives this whole campaign any legitimacy!!!!!!!

Don't fear anything, just prepare yourself and take precautions for whatever may come. More than likely, it will be something that none of us anticipated that really gets us, but we can always prepare. What good is fear anyway? Except as a tool for someone to manipulate you. See my sig line.

Seriously, a few experts in the world might have their suspicions, but the populace would never have a clue. The experts would either be bought off, threatened, or discredited before their suspicions were publicized.
