I don't think another atrocity or "terrorist attack" on the U.S. 
would help grow the ranks of the left. Doing nothing is doing 
something. And if your alibi was that you weren't in charge and 
so didn't create the conditions which led to the first or second 
attack, it wouldn't fly in my book. Doing nothing is doing something.
It's a tough position to be in, no doubt about it.
