I think one of the final blows to freedom, was Klintoons closing (oh, excuse me, the Secret Service's) of Pennsylvania Avenue, in response to the Oklahoma City bombing.
Osama saw what it cost us then, and placed his bets...
It is imponderable what the monetary cost has been to date, much less the wasted time, and bare feet crap in the airports...
Just the Penn Ave closing cost literally millions of lost hours, and wasted fuel, by redirecting traffic two blocks east...
Yep, Osama won! The Politicians are just playing for their fans...
I don't like their sport!
We will be reaping osama's whirlwind for decades. He got more than he ever thought he would.
