George Bush, why do you fail to keep us safe?
9/11 was preceded by the now famous August 6 PDB - "bin Laden Determined to strike in US". This report was famously ignored, with idiot son preferring, instead, to remain on a month long vacation at the Crawford pig farm.

Once the horse was out (9/11 happened), idiot son closed the barn door. Airlines were driven to bankruptcy with unfunded regulations and passengers, such as 80 year old white women in wheelchairs, were searched and harassed. Coffee cups and butter knives, knitting needles and nail clippers were prohibited. Inbound passengers to Washington National were told to cross their legs if they had to urinate within 30 minutes of landing.

Richard Reed tried to set his sneaker on fire.

Once again, after the horse was out of the barn, idiot son banned lighters on airplanes.

Bombs exploded in London and now they're looking for ways to make commuter systems 'safer'.

Yet again, after the horse is out of the barn, the doors are being closed.

Always reactive.

Never proactive.

Well, never proactive where it matters. But in other ways .... very proactive.

Patriot Act
Patriot Act II
Biometric records of any visitors to our country
National ID cards (in the works)
Cameras, cameras everywhere
With us or against us
Fear mongering at a wholesale level

Hey, idiot son .... how about .....

Border protection?
Port protection?
Inspection of shipping containers (like those going to .... mmmm .... WalMart)
Funding for police and firemen
Sensible distribution of Homeland Security funds to states (blue=0/red=$)

I cannot believe for a nanosecond that a guy like John Kerry ...... or John Edwards ...... or Howard Dean ....... or Wesley Clark ....... hell, even Al Sharpton would have ignored obvious holes in our national security safety net. I can't believe for a nanosecond that any one of them would have been so shortsighted as to act only AFTER an event and never in anticipation of an event.

Oh wait ...... we get it .... for the idiot son, it isn't even ABOUT national security or a safety net for our citizens ....... We get it, george, you old smart guy. Wow. Its about POWER. NOW we get it, george. You care only for your own power.

Cool ...... just so we understand.

You sorry motherfucker.

2. PATRIOT and PATRIOT II need to be repealed
They're grossly unconstitutional.

4. * doesn't give a shit....
9/11 was just a massive helping hand to this bastard and his cronies. It's all about the money. Nothing more, nothing less. :(
