Truth is it has stopped imminent attacks in the past and it has also contributed to the saving of a great many lives. Also please don't lump everyone into the category of the americans who take a rather blase attitude to such things, as few countries have that while most like it or not indulge these practices and benefit from them. When people repeat the often quoted line of "it has been proven to only get you told what you want to be told" it makes me laugh at the end of the day it is a practice that has been going on for centuries and it wouldn't have if it never delivered results. Sadly it does, sadly it is necessary and more sadly i don't see a day anytime soon where it will not be used or needed.

By all means take the moral high ground that is your right in a free country and condemn it to your last breath those people that have had to do it in the past and will be doing it in the present and future for the security of this country don't expect thank you's or credit. They are happy that people can continue to by and large live their life normally without attacks often being committed and people killed doing the shopping and other normal everyday things. As for george bush he really is the last person on the planet that should start this debate he really is but he has and people will have to make their minds up do a bit of thinking and decide on their personal position on this issue.
