Really? Really?

I'm watching President Bush's farewell address and I'm stunned. He says the greatest threat to our people remains another terrorist attack. One of today's headlines at National Mortgage News was about the foreclosure numbers for 2008. 3.2 million foreclosures were filed in 2008. There was an 81 percent increase in the number of filings. That number was more than 200 percent increase from 2006. How in the world is the threat of a terrorist attack more serious than millions of people who are losing their homes? What about the economic chaos that those numbers represent? I'm baffled. Just baffled.
