'9-11 is too distant a memory'...the U.S. is vulnerable to another attack
Edited on Fri Dec-30-05 08:11 AM by mopaul
on the today show, the sainted matt louder is featuring some guy who says that the u.s. is still way too vulnerable to another attack and that the shock of nine eleven has worn off and we are back to the same state of unpreparedness for attack as we were on sept. 10th., 01.

i'll try to catch what the guy says, but we've said it here many times. we all remember the shock and horror of that day, and it's burned into our souls, but bushco has done everything to exploit the horror, and nothing to prevent it's repeat. it would take quite a terror attack to top that one, and to top the shock and awe we all felt that day, and i hope the terrorists, whoever they are, will not try to top it.

the first attack went so well for bushco, you can bet your ass and the farm too that they've already planned on how to best exploit the next attack, which they've repeatedly promised us is coming.

1. The name is Steve Emerson
A supposed terrorism expert. Although I question his expertise, since both him and Pretty Boy Lauer claimed that we had not been attacked since 9-11, conveniently forgetting the anthrax letters.

Or maybe they only meant attached by Al-Queda. Hmmm.

2. State of unpreparedness
Does not the government play a decisive role in the level of preparedness?
From were i'm sitting it doesn't look like the govt has forgotten; they remind us practically every day.

So take a wild guess as to who needs to be reminded some more. We better fall in line or else - that's what it sounds like to me.
