Our enemies smell weakness?

While traveling last week, I read the New York Times piece on the Denver terror suspect and it struck me how detailed and resolute our enemies may be. They plan, and plan big, to do us harm.

And the Denver bad guys who concealed their plot with the code word "wedding" apparently are not the only ones. Now there's Dallas.

If any plot succeeds and we see another act of terrorism on American soil by foreign enemies, there will be much gnashing of teeth, and a good bit will be directed at the Obama administration. The Obama folks, who came into office chanting the mantra "let's all get along" have pretty much thrown away the practical precautions of the Bush administration and told us we're safer for it. Yet we see signs that our enemies are still out there and ready to strike.

Has the Obama administration teed us up for another strike?

I sincerely hope not. But then there's Denver ... and now the yahoo in Dallas. And that Philly thing. How many more for which we have no clue?
