I also think that if the Bush Admin and the Government
would be straight forward with the American People and
stay on the threats that face us on a daily basis, he
would have a 70% approval.

I am not neive, I do not need the reassurance that we
face great dangers, I am a Freeper, however, most of
America is and has no true outlet of news to report these
things.

I agree with you. But I think it could be the government's decision to "not" inform the public about the daily threats, so as to not infringe upon our daily productivity....harm the market....create "threat fatigue". These are all just guesses, but no other explanations make sense. I just know that personally, after 9/11 and my personal proximity to both areas, I could barely keep myself from intently watching every airplane when I was in an urban area for the entire year after. Having FR and TM has helped...I believe in being informed and making sure that you are also prepared for anything!
