<How do you know that Islamic terrorists had anything to do with 9/11? I've spent hundreds of hours studying this "new Pearl Harbor"> It is impossible to determine culpability based on direct evidence, so attributing culpability to anyone is an act of faith. Attributing culpability to the party that 99.995 of others do is more functional than attributing it to a party that only .005 of others do.

your NORAD point... reading it... thanks... how about making politicians be as responsible as CEO's are under.... 216.239.57.104 Congress recently passed a corporate reform bill known as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. President Bush signed the Act into law on July 30, 2002 and called the legislation “the most far-reaching reforms of American business practices since the time of Franklin Delano Roosevelt.” The act is aimed at eliminating corporate accounting fraud and deceptive management practices at public companies and contains far reaching provisions addressing issues such as personal responsibilities of top corporate officers, new obligations of management, enhanced SEC financial disclosure, and auditing issues for public companies. While some of the provisions become effective immediately, other provisions must be implemented by the SEC through the adoption of rules over a time period ranging from 30 days to one year. The following summary highlights the key provisions of the act likely to have an immediate impact on you and your company I mean... politicians, as we have been able to see, can cause far more severe and long lasting damage upon the people and the country's resources than ten ENRON executives could... what sort of privilege do they enjoy? after all, they are only public employees, [unfortunately] with access to WMD geez, at least businessman cannot get their hands on said WMD --or at east most of them.
