Nothing follows.

Armed sky marshals on all flights to and from US..even overflights

Yep ! I think that flights coming in will have their Sky Marshalls too, not ours ...

[Peach]

I switched to CNN but they eventually cut him off too.

Sheesh - the most important thing going on in our country right at the moment and they went back to Crossfire.

But CNN will be the first ones to have guests on complaining the government isn't telling us what to do. Well guess what? They WERE telling us and CNN cut away!

I am sorry you are missing intelligent conversation here on FR.There are other conservative boards that may give you what you are seeking,although there are many here who do share your opinion.

[Peach]

Couple of stories on the net yesterday, posted on FR, that Libya gave their WMD to AQ already. More on that to come, I expect.

[Fred Mertz]

Says who?

[cajungirl]

What is your point. Nothing is perfect. But they are winning a war ande we have had no more attacks on our soil. The only people who demand perfection are children. No one has said HS or GWB is perfect,,but they are damned good in my opiinion.

[Rutles4Ever]

I think the inference is that Homeland Security is tilting at windmills...

[Peach]

I'd like to see that link of yours permanently posted on the "front page" of FR. Thanks for posting it again.

I'm a little puzzled at the emphasis on airplanes...that must be where the intelligence leads, which I personally find a bit odd. Perhaps al-Qaeda isn't very imaginitive.

In traveling on the interstates during the holidays, however, security seemed, if anything, less that usual. Fewer marked patrol cars on the highway than one usually sees during holiday periods, and although there was plenty of truck traffic, the weigh stations were all closed.

Sky marshalls on international flights

All or selected?

ALL flights coming into or leaving the US will have Air Marshalls. Overflights too, MEG33 said in #212 ...

BINGO!

Oh, no doubt!

[PGalt]

What?

[NittanyLion]

Tom Ridge surely has a lively debate going on in the administration, with the President, with the cabinet,etc.

I see. So in your opinion debate should be limited only to active members of the government. There's no place for activism.

I wonder, then, what you're doing on this site? Do you realize the first 3 years of this forum's existence was largely spent speaking out against Clinton Administration policies?

Sure we debate agencies and their impacts. But most of us assume that the people who are running the country at this time are trying their best. If you begin by calling their stupid, dim, dumb, etc and continue with attributing malice to their motivations, the debate is over. It is just propaganda at that point.

Do you apply the same restraint to Democrats?

[cajungirl]

It is interesting,,must be something in the chatter. We see about less than 1% of what is going on in my opinion,,that iceberg of intel must have so much that we cannot imagine. Must lead to airplanes starting in foreign countries.

[Johnny_Cipher]

Thank you. Brainlock is a horrible disease ...

[PGalt]

They are BETTER than "damned good" in my opinion. This as probably the best combination of President and Administration that this great nation has ever seen.

[cajungirl]

We are at War now,,,that is the difference. And I don't care what democrats say.

[Amelia]

Cat fight?

No, I just don't see the point of posting unrelated fluff on a serious news discussion thread. Do you? If one has nothing to add to the discussion.....
