Scott Brown, the New Hampshire carpetbagger, is attacking Jeanne Shaheen for failing to understand the existential threat posed by a relative handful of religious nut-jobs half a world away:
>“Radical Islamic terrorists are threatening to cause the collapse of our country,” Mr. Brown says. “President Obama and Senator Shaheen seem confused about the nature of the threat — not me.”

An agressive response would be something to the following effect (properly massaged, of course, by Shaheen’s ad men): Does Scott Brown really believe that a bunch of religous nutcases can bring down the United State of America? Does he really think our country is so weak? We are the country that conquered Hitler and went to the moon, and we are more than capable of defending ourselves against some two bit terrorists. And we can do that without spending billions of dollars and thousands of lives in countries half a world away from us. Scott Brown thinks this country is weak, and he’s running scared; I think we are a strong country, and I don’t wet my pants every time some terrorist commits an act of violence somewhere in the world.
But, of course, her response is more likely to be that she does too totally understand that if we don’t bomb everyone in Syria that we could be an Islamic state next week, and who is this Obama guy Brown keeps talking about.
