This story will serve as the perfect illustrator of the no win situation Bush is in. In one corner, you will have the 9/11 Commission members spouting that this is proof we are not prepared. In the other corner you will have the ACLU and the libs ranting that this person's due process rights were violated and that marshals should not be allowed on planes.

In other words, "Do something to protect us Mr. President, but not anything that would actually protect us."

Actually, it somewhat demonstrates the opposite, so that argument won't fly (and, by the way, neither should lunatics) - except maybe on DU.

And in a third corner you'll have the self-styled "real" conservatives who will find something about this incident with which to bash GWB and/or Republicans.

it's Bush's fault. if we had 'Hillary Care' he would have had his meds and a pretty nurse to force it down him in addition to preferential airline treatment and a free straight jacket.
