Bush talks one game about 'terra' but we are still unprepared
WASHINGTON - Even though they were airborne, military jets were unable to get into position where they could have shot down a suspicious plane over Washington last month, and miscommunication among key figures in America's air defenses transformed a routine flight by Kentucky's governor into a dramatic evacuation of the Capitol, officials say.

Bush administration officials are to testify before Congress on Thursday about the problems encountered June 9, when a flight by Gov. Ernie Fletcher caused a breathless evacuation of the Capitol building on the day Ronald Reagan's body was brought to lie in state.

1. it is all a game...they know there is no threat...MIHOP or LIHOP
all the airport stuff is for show.....not security... they can come across the borders...and so many other ways...and the media tells them all the ways to make bombs and blow up stuff...

while they are helping to recruit in iraq...the real criminals in saudi arabia go free...

they are doing what osama wanted...getting out of saudi...

so they have done nothing to protect us...but they interview air line passengers all the time...who say they feel safer.....

now they go through all your stuff...

I go to a water park and they look through my bag.... I get so frustrated...

when I was at disney.. some want you to unzip every pocket.....on a cold day...you bag is full of coats and sweaters and such..and you have to unpack it all.....it is ridiculous... but the average american says they feel better....

if someone wanted to blow something up they could and would....
