69. Not today you're not
Maybe tomorrow.

Bush and Rove may be poised to politicize this event as they did 9/11.

However, today is not the day for that. Today is for an expression of sympathy.

Have you ever considered that what you're asking for from our leaders would very likely turn most people off.

Not to mention, from seeing just this bit of his statement, I can tell the hawk in him is on full alert again. He's spent too much time sounding the alarm on terrorism (since 1997 at least), and too much time studying it (since BCCI at least), not to get mighty peeved when another attack happens.

If people would have heeded his warnings back in 1997, maybe we wouldn't BE in this predicament now. But it seemed first Clinton and then Bush just ignored the signs for the most part.
