Do you feel safer? A poll

When Howard Dean said he didn't believe the capture of Saddam Hussein made America any safer, both his fellow Democratic presidential candidates and the media pounced on him from all sides.

But when American hero John Glenn said the exact same thing yesterday, they took no notice. That's Col. John Glenn, distinguised veteran of World War II and the Korean War, and Astronaut John Glenn, as well as U.S. Senator John Glenn, and subsequently Astronaut John Glenn once again. And John Glenn, former presidential candidate, though he gave that up quite some time ago. He was on TV yesterday because he's also John Glenn, Secretary General of the Inventing Flight celebration commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Wright Brothers' first flight. When they ran out of questions about that, the reporters asked him if he believed America is safer now that Saddam is in U.S. custody.

"I don't think I could say that," Glenn said. And he pointed out that so far no connection has been found between Saddam and the 9/11 attacks.

So what do you think? Please click here to take our poll via Zoomerang.com.

Here's the survey:

Do you feel safer now that Saddam Hussein has been captured?

Yes, much safer

A little

No

I'd feel safer if they found the WMD

I'd feel safer if they found Osama bin Laden

I'd feel safer if they lock up Michael Jackson

I say anyone who doesn't feel safer is a traitor

Other, Please Specify

Thanks for answering; it shouldn't take long.

...and speaking of Howard Dean, here's a message from him on how you can help support our troops. I received it today, and I hope Gov. Dean doesn't mind my copying it here:

"Our troops are in harm's way this holiday season. Hundreds of thousands of American soldiers won't be home for the holidays -- but we can still let them know how proud we are of the finest military in the world. There are two ways you can show American troops how grateful their fellow citizens are for their sacrifice.

Many Americans want to send care packages to the troops, but have no idea how to do it. By visiting Anysoldier.us you can get information about sending a care package to one of our troops in the field:

The site provides information about what our troops need us to send and where we can send it. Many of our men and women in uniform endure the harshest conditions -- even the most basic food items or personal hygiene products can make a huge difference. They also need help with supplies like gloves and flashlights to help them complete their missions. Click here to send a soldier the supplies she or he needs on the ground:

Some soldiers will almost make it home for the holidays. Each day more than 470 soldiers arrive home on short notice for two-week R&R stints -- but the military only takes them part of the way. Servicemen and -women are flown to Germany or one of three airports in the United States -- from there they are on their own to get home.

You can donate your airline frequent flyer miles to Operation Hero Miles to bring them all the way home. Twelve major airlines will accept donations as part of this program, started by Congressman Dutch Ruppersberger, Democrat of Maryland.

Because the last-minute notice the troops receive, they are forced to pay very expensive fares to finish their journey. Your miles can bring an American soldier home to his or her family for the holidays:

Many of you, like me, did not support a unilateral war in Iraq. But the brave women and men of the U.S. military deserve our support and gratitude even as we seek to change the policies that put them in danger. Please join me in supporting our troops this holiday season -- and in wishing them a safe return home.

Yours sincerely,

Governor Howard Dean, M.D."
