Get real, Richard. It takes more than a political plot to stop air traffic.

You must be kidding. If the neocons were serious about security they would have closed the southern border long again. The occasional ridiculous hype and hysteria about airliners is not even good theatre. Like I said, Rove needs some new material.

Richard, you're about as convincing on Homeland Security as you are in economics.

Which is to say, not very.

Sure -- Rove orchestrated the 9-11 attack to make Bush more popular, right?

There is the group that says the president isn't doing enough (the borders) and the group that says the president is doing too much (Patriot Act).

It's impossible to close our borders, although I do wish we'd get more serious about the illegal immigration issue.

There isn't a Democrat in the entire country who would do half as much as President Bush has done to secure the country as best he could.

Oh for heavens sake, this is not Rove material or Bush's or neocon smokescreen. If the hyped interest in air threats is anything at all, it is overreaction to the jihadis own disinformation.

Of course I don't have whatever information is making the governments nervous about airline flights. (and probably neither do you) From the info I have read on the net, the airliner thing is probably just an al qaeda smokescreen just to make us stand up and look the wrong way.
