9/11 Politics

There has been a lot of noise over the raising of the terror alert to Orange last week.

Critics are charging that it shouldn't have been raised because part of the information is 3-4 years old. Some people are ignoring the fact that there is direct evidence that 9/11 was at least four years in the making.

If that's true, then what is all this noise about? If we had discovered plans (on September 10th) that dated back to 1996 that laid out the attack on the World Trade Center, complete with plans to ram hijacked airliners into both towers, would we have done nothing? WHOOPS!! That's exactly what happened last time!

This is election-year politics, AGAIN!

Why do idiot politicians put election year POLITICS ahead of preventing the terrorists from carrying out attacks on specific targets?

They're unfastening our country's belt and preparing to drop our nation's drawers as al-Qaeda prepares to turn around and give us a thrashing! Burying our heads in the sand will NOT make this problem go away, so do us all a favor, politicians, and deal with reality AS IT IS, not AS YOU WANT IT.
