How are Obama's counterterrorism policies different from Bush's?

How are the Obama administration's counterterrorism policies different from the Bush administration's? On the next Your Call, we'll talk about Homeland Security under Obama and whether policies have changed at all since Bush. Public outrage is growing over the new use of body-scanners and intrusive pat-downs at airports. How do they fit into the larger picture? Join us live at 11 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. President Obama doesn't use the term "war on terror," but is his approach different? It's Your Call with Sandip Roy and you.
