Not to mention that EVERY American is paying attention now. NOBODY's going to hijack an airliner with box cutters. I'd fight on such a flight. That probably protects us more than all the government's efforts.

"You think the terrorists are a fake enemy?" It depends on what you are calling terrorists. We are most vulnerable to the domestic kind. We are least vulnerable to the international kind. Al Qaeda bingoed on 9/11, they aren't likely to pull that off again. They exploited a weakness in the airline system and we had an administration that was more interested in rogue states and reviving Star Wars than in the free lancers. That has changed. Well, that should stir up Harris rather nicely. Thank God you said when you did....he was getting ready to let the gov't occupy his house when fighting the terrorists......right after New Year's. There is no way that the threat justifies the wholesale spying on Americans. Not to you. ted
