Is America's political dysfunction our biggest threat to national security?

It all depends on where the dysfunction is taking place? Not seeing it in the military? The fact that the President does not have a straategy, is not dysfunction, it is poor leadership. There is a difference.

SGM (Join to see), the author makes a good argument that political dysfunction is a great threat to national security, and I believe it. I think it's a little unfair to include the Pentagon in the mix ("the Pentagon is not leaving enough troops to protect Afghanistan"), because the Pentagon is following orders, but I do believe the overall argument is valid.

If the Congress and the President can't get along or compromise, that can easily become a national security concern.

No SGM (Join to see), Barak Obama is the greatest threat to US National Security since Julius Rosenberg.
