Ok, we want to be secure in our homeland (what the fu*k does this mean...doesn't it sound like Hitler's Germany?) like everyone else....but ya gotta admit that the timing thing here just smells.
Political liability = terror alert, terror announcement, terror alert level raised, etc. The Boy Who Cried Wolf, anyone? Thanks to C&L, as usual, for the great work getting it posted.
Problem is, one day it may really be true and we're all so numb to it by now that it really creates danger. BTW, do you feel safe knowing your life is in the hands of Michael Chertoff? Who is Michael Chertoff, anyway? Well, you can Google him yourself, but most disturbing is that he defended this idiot, Dr. Magdy el-Amir, who, in really round about ways was accused of funneling money to Osama (remember him?). You'll find all sort of juciy 'conspiracy theory' articles out there on this one, so take it with a grain of salt. Will we be sorry when Chertoff plunges us into the belly of the beast?
