Protecting Bush's Life
Edited on Thu Apr-08-04 01:39 PM by Amerpie
Remember last fall when Bush went to England and they spent a ton on money protecting him? Security is always so tight wherever he goes. I'm already cringing at the prospective bill for this summer's convention.

Buy seriously, does anyone really believe that there are terrorists dumb enough to want Dick Cheny to be the next president of the US?

1. Why not?
* and Cheney did a great recruiting job for the terrorists. Couldn't wish any better.

2. My guess; terrorists target symbolic targets, not people
WTC - the symbol of capitalism.
Pentagon - the symbol of American military might.

Terror-ists, attempt to create widespread terror.

3. It would be bad to assume he's not a target because of that...

What greater terror than to hit the most protected of all? If they can get him, who would consider themself safe? And didn't they get the Egyptian president a few years back? That's not to say I don't think they've gone overboard with some of the stuff, particularly the trip to England.
