October 6, 2001 -- No one should pooh-pooh the warnings of another attack on Americans, particularly if America strikes at Osama bin Laden and his supporters. But Washington would be foolish to allow that to thwart such strikes.
"We think that there is a very serious threat of additional problems now," Attorney General John Ashcroft said this week. "And frankly, as the United States responds, that threat may escalate."

And be reassured: This president isn't going for instantly gratifying, Clintonesque pinprick attacks. This president isn't basing military action on popularity numbers or his legacy. This president doesn't need distracting headlines to make us forget disgraceful personal behavior.
This president, this commander in chief, is a Godsend in this time of crisis. I trust him.
Until then, we have thousands of the enemy within our borders and they will kill us.
The first wave of attacks has met with astounding indifference in many quarters. It amazes me, but I honestly think and believe that a second round of attacks will unleash a hellstorm on the illegals amongst us.
As in mosques being firebombed and families being burnt out and slaughtered.
I hope it does not come to that, because I just can not believe that our enemies are that f#%*ing stupid.
You see folks, there is more to the tragedy of 9/11 than millions of sheeple realize. While I do believe Osama Yomama is guilty in his hatred for America and acts of terrorism against it,...I also believe he's merely a puppet of those who want to see this country and its freedoms come to an end. ...I've seen the enemy,...and he is US. ...or at least, some of us who happen to be NWO socialists. ...and to all the "Bush butt-kissers" out there who defend his every move, flame all you want. The truth is never easy to accept. One thing I do know about the alledged "clever and conservative" GW Bush, is that he is NEITHER clever or conservative. He is, in fact, just another NWO hack, like his father before him. ...I do request, though, that before you flame,...ask yourselves these questions:
Why is Clinton not in jail?
Why are there so many Clinton appointees still serving in a Bush administration?
Why is Bush giving almost $600 million in supposed "back dues" to the UN?
Why is Bush wanting to now recognize a Palestinian state?
Why, if we are supposed to be stopping terrorists, are our borders still wide open?
Why is Bush STILL wanting to grant amnesty to millions of illegal aliens, when polls show that almost 80% of Americans are against it?
Why haven't the land-grabs stopped?
Why, in the name of home security, are laws about to be passed that will take away our freedoms (national ID Cards/gun confiscation), yet illegals can come and go as they like?
...So many questions. So few answers. ...wake up, my American brothers and sisters. ...wake up. I am not a democrat nor a republican. I think both parties have ultimately sold us out. ...but I love my country. I love my country and the constitution upon which it was founded. ...My hope, is that you feel the same.
The day the WTC was hit America should have put a nuclear missile right in the center of Afghanistan. But no, we must beg and plead and buy our way to get support for a limited war, such as the one we fought to get Sadam (which we didn't do, thanks to Powell).

I believe the answer is that those in power are above the law.
There is almost nothing they can't get away with. They can lie, cheat, steal, break any law, murder people or have them murdered, commit traitorous acts, etc.
Should one of them almost get "caught", they are protected by the rest.
In many cases, they do it openly. Look at how congress places itself above the law, gives itself special privileges and protects its own.
Everyone knows this happens on a local level, and accepts it as just the way things are.
It happens on all levels. It always has.
I would like to think that he is clearing the slate before he pulls the United States out of the UN.
More likely, it is some sort of payoff.
Even more likely, it is just another small step toward world government.
The immediate shutdown of all air traffic was a bold, brilliant move and probably saved many lives. The obvious next step would have been to close and arm the borders and remove all non-citizens from this country. Especially muslem/islam mid-easterners; these first.
Government's job is to protect its citizenry and this would have gone a long way to doing that. I believe lives will be lost for not taking such "common sense" actions.
The question begs itself: What is of higher priority(to those in power) than the protection of U.S. citizens by our government?
