"The ragheads won with 9/11."

Do you know why? Because the Board of Directors at UAL and AMR decided to do security on the cheap. They hired barely literate (sometimes foreign) cheap labor to scan and monitor the security posts. I'm sorry for your wife as she gets it. She is about to lose her retirement and benefits and probably her job as she knew it.

I really feel sorry for the victims and families of 9-11. Now their lawsuits against AMR will be under the control of a bankruptcy judge. He will reduce or eliminate most claims. These families will have to go to the Federal government for a settlement of $1 Million which will be paid in installments over 20 years and not tax free. So if your husband or wife earned $150,000 per year, you're screwed again. But the CEO's of AMR and UAL will not lose their homes or holdings. They should be charged with manslaughter and prosecuted as criminals. But this will never happen. The era of personal responsibility died in 1992.

"He will reduce or eliminate most claims."

That should read "he or she".

Your comments on security are somewhat accurate. However, the bigger picture comes from 8 yrs of Bubba in the White House. The apathy, the piss poor immigration policies that allowed these folks to freely come in from from their Third World ratholes. But your security at the airports have a little problem holding up when one remembers that they used "boxcutters". If the animals had not been allowed here in the first place... see what I mean.

Who is more responsible for 9/11, the CEO's of airlines or the politicians that allow 11 million illegals to rome our countryside, CEO's or the politicians that allowed know terrorists into this country. Could you state for me the FAA rule that was violated by the screeners hired by AA and UAL? Knives and box cutters were legal. Think before you post.
