“People,
We gave billions in tax dollars to the AGENCIES who were supposed to protect this nation.
Now after another TRILLION or so in funding, we have more gizmos in place, but all of it
is worthless against one determined nut case who wants to make a name for him/herself.
FEAR=FUNDING and the failure of those systems in place only means they have an excuse
for MORE FUNDING.
Drunks on the road kill more people every year than all the Al Qaeda wannabees in the world.”

“I think the media has a resonsibility to carefully differentiate between the core Al Qaeda group
and spin off, wannabe Al Qaeda "inspired" sub factions or individuals "inspired by Al Qaeda"
I doubt the core group had ever even heard of these individuals.”

“If we had captured or killed the original members of Al Qaeda when we had the chance,
there wouldn't be this continuation of AQ Wannabes, trying to draw attention to themsleves.
It would have been OVER, with these criminals either dead or spending the rest of their lives in prison.
Now, thanks to the greed and incompetence of the Bush administration, we have an entire generation
of potential lunatic reprisals to worry about.”

“He's great. Great but. But America is a centrist country and Democrats are being led off the cliff by the hard left. Not that it matters though since political suicide has already happened with the stunningly bad health care bill. If a person spends all their time on leftwing blogs and news sites they just don't quite see what a tiny minority they are in since the discourse is always amongst themselves, punctuated by screaming and yelling at others with whom they disagree. Obama won because of Bush revulsion and the Independents and those folks have said "Goodbye Barak."”

“Until recently, we may have never even known about what happened without CSPAN coverage.
All we ever got before was the sanitized, official AP newswire release and that was it.
The Old Guard, is still coming to grips with the power of a viral youtube video and so many
people actually watching them as they spin and double speak their way to lucrative campaign contributions and outside business interests.
What they fear the most, is knowing We The People can take them out in the primaries, before
all those campaign contributions materialize into another unchallenged term in office.
Corporations use " Trade Organizations" to launder their bribe money.
The more we watch, the more we read, the more we learn and the more
power that gives us all.”

I fear we wil see a purge of investor owned property this spring on those plans even

Those who can not recoup their original pre construction values will walk away
