I believe that our national security lies not just in protecting our borders, but in bridging divides.

Clearly, border security has been the top domestic issue of the year, and rightly so. Securing our borders is an essential aspect of our national security.

We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.

We're fighting an enemy that is far different than any we have got before. It's a nontraditional kind of war, and I think we need to step back, recalibrate how we go about protecting our borders and protecting our people, and resetting our position in the world.

From protecting our natural resources to providing maritime security and national defense, the Coast Guard's duties are broad in scope, and the performance of those duties has never been more important.

The Supremes
The United States
Supreme Court
lacks creditable
determinable
unity of purpose.
Guantanamo Bay
is a geographical
miscarriage of justice.
The first amendment
protects the rights
of citizens individuals
but not at the expense
of national security.
There is no greater
singular unity
of purpose
than protecting
homeland security.
The Motown
Supremes
sang with
greater integrity
unity of purpose.

I believe that successfully addressing our national security needs while protecting our basic freedoms and civil liberties requires continual Congressional oversight, and I will continue to work to assert the role of this body in carrying out this grave responsibility.

Division is growth
Creed divides, region divides,
Nation divides, religion divides.
One leans to the other against third.
But for Satan, no support to God.

I think America understands that energy security is a very important part of our national security. But if we are going to address energy security in a meaningful way going forward, we need to do it in a new manner. We cannot just be doing the same old thing.

Secondly, security. Both the challenges we face in the world and the responsibilities that our country has in protecting our people, are major issues. We need to do more in the context of domestic security.

Americans are rightly concerned about the security and the integrity of the nation's borders because the system is broken. Some are concerned about the possibility of terrorists crossing our borders and coming into our cities.

The idea of motherland is not a false idea, but it is a little idea, and one which must remain little. There is only one common good. There is only one moral duty, only one truth, and every man is the shining recipient and guardian of it. The present understanding of the idea of motherland divides all these great ideas, cuts them into pieces, specializes them within impenetrable circles. We meet as many national truths as we do nations, and as many national duties, and as many national interests and rights — and they are antagonistic to each other.

Border security is a complex issue and will remain a top priority during the 2007 legislative year. As Congress works to fix this problem, I will continue to push for strong measures that beef up security at our borders.

Our National Guard, as I think everybody knows, has provided about 40 percent of the boots on the ground in Iraq and in the conflict against Islamofascism. They went into that battle, being called up for their national security service, short of equipment.
The Patriot Act removed major legal barriers that prevented the law enforcement, intelligence, and national defense communities from talking and coordinating their work to protect the American people and our national security.

One of the reasons I continue to speak out is that the solutions to the counterterrorism problem involve other parts of the national security community - especially other elements of the Department of Defense, State, FBI, Homeland Security and the staff.

NSA Policy Is Wars Protecting
reality in the world
political situation
is changing interesting
but sadly disappointing
welcome home realities
National Security Agency
can employ an extra ten
thousand new recruits sparkling
per year of operation
in a post 9/11 recruit world
ten thousand dedicated to spying
no policy warrant taps required
ten thousand new spying lying
within invasive codes secrecy
but hire a single guru of peace?
no profit policy is wars protecting
NSA numbered legal exemptions
from law requirements disturbing
time safeguarding oil wars spending
business profits from wars protecting
if we would spend as much on peace
if we would spend as much on peace
as we do in vast sums totaled on wars
we would be a happy little planet stunning
