InspectorCluseau/clappster: I'm beginning to think Bush may need to reign in Cheney and his FBI leader....they are running loose and making statements that could be dangerous and counter-productive --> IMO, they should be very careful with their use of warnings (about things like suicide bombers in our streets)...It's not wise to cry wolf. Everyone knows we are quite vulnerable and there's no need to remind folks....It creates a fear mentality and scares the market. Here's part of an email a friend just sent me (I think he picked this up off of a discussion board today)...

<<..."Cheney speaks about more Terrorism in America being imminent & The FBI director states yesterday suicide style bombers may strike in the heartland...absolute overkill-irresponsible statements-in an era of McCarthyism reborn under the neo right conservative republican agenda.

Kennedy knew the risks of his era-so did the ones that followed...and to induce investor manic paranoia more than is already prevalent-means this market does not feed on the fundamentals of the economic recovery-or any tangible visibility bellweathers are offering-but more on the spoken word-in regards to the definitions of uncertainty-and geopolitical instability."...>>
