Radical Islamic Extremism

"We wanted to know what single economic threat he perceives above all others."~Fortune

After upwards of 10 seconds of silence.

"Well, I would think that the absolute gravest threat is the struggle that we're in against radical Islamic extremism, which can affect, if they prevail, our very existence. Another successful attack on the United States of America could have devastating consequences."

I can see how in some sick twisted manner Islamic Terrorists could affect our economy. But come on, are you freakin' serious?! You know so little about the economy Mr McCain that you just attempt to link the war on terror to *everything* now?! That is pathetic.

"Asked what single economic concern worries him most and will be uppermost on his mind if he steps into the Oval Office next January, Obama said energy supplies. "It's not a problem I think we can drill our way out of," he says. "It can be a drag on our economy for a very long time unless we take steps to innovate and invest in the research and development that's needed to find alternative fuels, to make our transportation system more energy efficient, retool our industry and our buildings.""
