Why Tough Questions Must Be Asked Right Now

After any terrorist attacks, the political/media Establishment now expects/accepts two things: Republicans immediately use the tragedy for their own political purposes, while Democrats refuse to ask the tough national security questions that America desperately needs asked. Sadly, that dynamic is happening again after the horrible attacks in London.

For an analysis of it all, read this article in the New York Times Week in Review, which uses a blog post I did on Friday to look at the situation. When you are done reading the Times piece, and if you have time, read my follow-up thoughts over at the Huffington Post about why this post-attack political dynamic further endangers the security of our country.
