no, there is no massive, deeply complicated conspiracy - but what there
is is not being coordinated by Bush. Karl Rove calls the shots.

you call strategic bombing, doubling the overall counterterrorism
budget, and tripling the counterterrorism budget specifically for the
FBI not doing anything? how about coming up with the original plan for
a Department of Homeland Security, which Bush scoffed at until 9/11?
how about capturing, trying, and convicting those responsible for the
original WTC attack in '93, even though Clinton had only been in office
for *38 days* when it happened?

there was no "fixing" the terror problem. but had he listened to those
in the know, 9/11 may not have happened. and after it DID happen, we
spent about 3 minutes in Afghanistan, where we knew some of the culprits
to be, and moved on to Iraq, which had exactly zip to do with the
attack. our fearless leader at one point called Osama a "non-priority,"
a quote that he'll never be able to run from.

in other news, Bush has called Kerry a liar on public television. also,
Don King said Kerry had funny hair, and Jay Leno said Kerry had a big
chin.
