the legacy of ineptitude
As we now see, the creation of the Department of Homeland Security is the Edsel of the century, purported to be the best, in actuality, a foundering, whimpering, behemoth, unable to do any more than make sure we take off our shoes to get on an airplane.

by shifiting nearly 75% of funding to "terrorism" activities, they blindly turn their collective back to the predictible and regular damage and nightmare of hurricanes, ice storms, tornados, drought, floods, locust, frogs and other Biblical curses.

They base their existence on the need to retract civil liberties, maintain a level of fear, (what is our current fear color??), by crying wolf with regularity, and in general, create jobs for sycophants, suck ups and other parasites.

1. About 20 years from now, High School kids
will be reading their history books. In Chapter 5, "The Era of Decline", students read about George Bush and his colossal failings.

On page 59, it says, "The American people were fooled into believing the government was really waging a "War against Terrorism". In truth, it was nothing more than a new source of raiding, of turning the spigot on full blast".

In reality, there was no money spent on funding for terrorism. It went to their bank accounts.
