Poll question: Is Bush trying to set up another 911?
I find it odd that the Sky Marshalls are being cut back, especially when they were part of one of Bush's pet projects.

Anyways, let's do a poll and see what you think:

1. Don't think of it as an attack, think of it as a Unity Operation

He's a uniter, and look how united Americans are since 9-11.

By 9-15 bush's approval rating was 90 something, and the congroos didn't even read the patriot act, just rubber stamped it like they were intended to do.

2. I'm afraid I agree, DuctapeFatwa
Monsters can rationilze ANYTHING.

Even regular human beings can rationalize quite a bit of evil in the name of (insert "ends justify the means" bullshit here).

Just which group do you think the Imperial Family and their Minions belong?

3. He's using this as a ploy to tell the sheeple
that his administration thwarted a terrorist attack in the "summer of 03" when he goes on the road to re-election. Pure propoganda, they know that there will not be another terrorist attack because they LIHOP and they could not survive a 2nd one. This is merely to keep the sheep scared.

5. I agree
It would be way too politically damaging for there to be another attack under Bush's watch and after all the $ we've supposedly spent on homeland security and foreign intelligence. They will just make it look like they prevented an attack.

4. If it was anybody else I would say no.
But 9/11 was the best thing to ever happen to Bush. I'm sure he misses those days terribly and would do anything to get them back.

6. By not providing the funding the states need
and instead focusing on setting up his rich cronies with tax breaks, contracts, etc.

he's assuring we won't be prepared for another 9/11

he's (so he thinks) getting two for the price of one
