I worry about international terror as a method for bringing about political change or sociological change in different countries. And this concerns me because our homeland is not immune from this kind of dastardly attack. And so I worry about that a lot.
I am not one who - who flamboyantly believes in throwing a lot of words around.

the biggest government spender we've seen in decades
