Actually, we only got into the war after it had raged for 2 years on top
of
that,a nd we had a NATION COMMITTED to the outcome....Which we don't have
now....
You ever heard of RATIONING, and scrap metal drives and all industry doing
war production?  back then yes...
these days no...
From 41-45 there were no big changes in cares and designs since most of
the
car companies were making tanks and jeeps...
We as a country are not on a war footing....

Then look at the numbers.  fom 41-45 over 13 million people served in the
armed forces...
these days, 1-2 million....

It was in his speech to congress when he "asked permission" (which THEY
GRANTED) to seek out and find this enemy, in ANY STATE (Country) that he
hid
in.....

Congress has refused to seal the borders...
Bush recently tried to Order it and residents of Texas took it to court to
block it....

I think you don't...
I have been exposed to terrorism as a civilian since I was 6 and a bomb
exploded on a street near me in London....
You watch CNN and think you know what the real world  is like.
