If there are so many suspicious persons in the U.S., and if they

are associates of AlQaida, why aren't they being arrested or charged with plotting terrorist acts.... and furthermore, just how many people (other than the innocent one) have the air marshals taken down in the last 4 years??? 100? 50? 25? 10? 1?????? Interesting non-developments on that front.

1. Stop all of that thinking, citizen......

thinking like that on your own is aiding and abetting the enemy. Do not question our leader, our leader is keeping us safe. Our leader is spying only on those that would do harm to America. You can trust him.
Now go about your business citizen and don't let me hear anymore of your "thoughts", they're dangerous and undermining the safety and security of our country. That is all.

2. Because YOU won't give the president absolute power, that's why!

All those LAWS and DEMOCRATS are giving aid and comfort to the enemy. You have to allow the president MORE TIME because in fact he's stopping THOUSANDS of attacks on your house RIGHT NOW. If you just didn't know about his wiretaps and stopped worrying about american citizens jailed without trial, we'd be safe.

3. Even more, why haven't they been committing acts here?

If there are thousands of suspects, then SOME must be active AQ agents. If they haven't been being caught and arrested, why haven't they acted?

Here's what I think. Yes, there ARE AQ cells in the US. And Yes, they have been sitting inactive.

Why? Two reasons.

1. This administration dismantled the US's entire domestic anti-terrorism infrastructure prior to 9/11, and thus is totally ineffective against them. (Evidence? Clintons top outgoing advice to the incoming administration was to pursue AQ, stating that terrorism would be the following administrations top problem. Advice ignored.)

and

2. Our own administration has been doing a bang up job of keeping us citizens terrified of AQ without our domestic AQ cells lifting a finger. Why should they, with the administration ranting "Terror! AQ! 9/11!" on every radio and TV station nonstop, 24/7, for the last 4 years? (Evidence: Turn on your TV.)

4. You make a good point.

Why should al Qaeda bother doing anything to us? The Bush administration is doing much more damage to America than any terrorist could dream of doing.

Could al Qaeda bankrupt our Treasury? Could al Qaeda fill our government with incompetent cronies? Could al Qaeda destroy our middle class? Could al Qaeda take away our freedoms and liberties?

No, it takes a Bush (remotely controlled by a Dick) to do these things to us. Shoot, if I were the terrorists I would just sit tight and let King George the Ape destroy America for me. Which is just what they are doing.

George Bush is America's gift to our enemies. He's the gift that keeps on giving.

5. People whom shrubco would label "terrorists" the Tamil Tigers...

were right there for the Tsunami victims... (not an endorsement of these people, don't know what their agenda is) but the point is, even the so say "evildoers" didn't let their brethren down.... shrubco did so with flying colors.
