What actions that he took that you believe lessened our vulnerability?

One thing that I think he did was increased the size of the intelligence workforce. They got rid of a lot of those Russian specialists who had been populating the intelligence workforce and brought in some people who know the Middle East.

Another thing is that he put more security in the airports. For all the aggrevation it causes and the criticism it gets, I think it has served as a deterrent.

Normally I would say that power projection is a good deterrent, but I'm not sure I think that is the case now. The only positive thing I can see out of Iraq is that it gave Al Quayda an American target in the region.
