First of all there are a lot of non-liberals in CA - that's how we elected Arnold. :)

Second of all, CA is on high alert, especially LA -- with the serious, credible threat to LAX. That's why they canceled the Air France flights -- thereat to LAX.

In 2000, a customs agent fortunately found the bomb a terrorist was brining in from Canada to set if off at LAX.

I think Californians are quite aware that we are very vulnerable.

Strange that AQ wants to hit LAX so badly....wonder what is up with that.

You're right. I'm from California, and I know that it's not nearly as liberal as it is painted by the rest of the country. I also know that most Californians are very self absorbed and a bit dim on their understanding other states, much less the outside world. (Except for Vegas, of course.)

I think that a major terrorist attack would affect the psyche of Los Angeles (or San Francisco) far more than it did the psyche of New York. That's just my assessment of the local cultures and mood. People who are reflexively emotional and self centered would react very powerfully to a 9/11 type attack.
