Why No Explosive Sniffing Dogs at the Mosul Base??? Did the money go to
Star wars or what?? Why are the Bush guys penny wise and pound foolish. War in Afghanistan and Iraq rather than air marshals on planes when Bush got the warning of Bin Laden hijacking the planes ?
Why did they not have explosive sniffing dogs checking out the locals working at the Mosul base?

We can run dogs through schools like a bunch of nazis but we can't put them where there is a real danger??

1. money for tazers used on kids could be spent on dogs for soldiers
You have a point there.

2. Reports are saying the explosive was a new, harder-to-detect type...
But that leads to another security question. Just where are the insurgents getting these newer materials????

3. Ahh yes, the "magical boogyman WMD"
You can't see it, the UN inspectors can't find it, the troops can't locate it...but trust us, it's bad and it's there!

Incompetence.

4. BushCo missed 9/11, misinterpreted basic intelligence on Iraq's WMD's
utterly failed to predict this ongoing bloodbath. Why be at all surprised at any other little sign of incompotence?

Unless everything, at leat since Nov. 2000, has gone precisely as planned.

6. It all will stop when we get 'who is to days bad man'
Each day we are told some one is evil and that is the man to kill, so we must have a man of the day for this.

7. 100 lbs of BB's & shrapnel could have been detected by a metal detector or
a pat-down.
