There are two types of courage involved with what I did. When it comes to picking up a rifle millions of people are capable of doing that as we see in Iraq or Vietnam. But when it comes to risking their careers or risking being invited to lunch by the establishment it turns out that's remarkably rare.
Of all the things I've done the most vital is coordinating those who work with me and aiming their efforts at a certain goal.
The Patriot Act removed major legal barriers that prevented the law enforcement intelligence and national defense communities from talking and coordinating their work to protect the American people and our national security.
Relief organizations both large and small are coordinating deliveries of food clothing water and other basic necessities to those impacted by Katrina.
