How to make America more secure from terrorist threats:

- secure the nation's ports, planes, trains, nuclear facilities and chemical plants.

These remain dangerously vulnerable thanks to Mr. Bush:

- It would take $6 billion to provide adequate protection for the nation's commuter trains; Bush has allocated ONLY $100 million.

- It would take $3 billion to equip all airports to screen backage for explosives; Bush has allocated ONLY $400 million.

By comparison, the US spends $3 billion in Iraq EVERY TEN DAYS. Bush has misplaced priorities in his obsession with Iraq and the American people are going to sadly pay the price.

Who does Bush care more about... his rich oil friends or the American people?

DEFEND AMERICA. DEFEAT BUSH!!!

Actually, the first step should be to secure and lock down the nations borders.

Then implement the security items you propose.
