who disabled richard reed. it was the public. who disabilitied abdu hewal will be? public awareness is a different situation. it didn't exist on 9/11. certainly that's a good thing. from our opponent, we'll hear from al qaeda has a diabolically clever idea to bankrupt the economy. we are large. al qaeda is not economist. we are spending 1.5% of gdp and 4.5 on the entire national security. just for reference, we spend 9% in 1968 during the vietnam, during world war ii, we spent 47%. they would aware it's benefiting lots of people. it's not a coincidence that five out of ten of the richest counties surround washington, d.c. bankrupting us has helped us. [laughter] >> sure, al qaeda says we have the great idea. we're going to bankrupt you. this is our clever plan. you don't buy the propaganda of the enemy. do you remember the east coast blackout. they said we are responsible. that wasn't true. the idea that the economic problems are caused by al qaeda, it's crazy. subprime mortgage, tax cuts at a time of war, entitlement programs, you know what the real problems are. t
