I just called the only Meehan number that is taking calls. 978-459-0101. I gave them a piece of my mind. Make sure you say you are a constituent.

Other threads on the Meehan / Neal outrage and the FR response are here and here.

FWIW, I don't believe Air Force One was a target although I believe the White House was. I suspect the claims that AF1 was a target may indeed be a response to criticism of Bush.

But, I frankly don't understand why anyone CARES! It was smart to keep the president out of harm's way until the full situation could be assessed.

And understand that liberals like Meehan and Neal respond to emotion and symbolism, not action and word. So, of course, they don't think Bush handled it well. In a time such as this, they should have been wise enough though to shut up about it. They are displaying their shallowness.

BTW, I'm still waiting for the "action" part - a military strike is needed. If we nuke some Arab terrorist camps, will that be "symbolic" enough for you, Marty?

Read this. This is very interesting!!!!

Secret Service was told: 'Air Force One is next' Government

(snip last paragraaph)
The worry now must be that knowledge of codewords, presidential whereabouts and secret procedures indicates the terrorists may have a mole in the White House ­ or the Secret Service, FBI, FAA or CIA. If so, America's war on terror may well have to start in its own front room.

He was on the radio saying he was misquoted That's great news. It means he has been swamped with calls and felt an explanation was needed. HHL thanks - my fax went through but there's nothing like a personal rebuke and I intend to let 'em have it. Afraid if I say I'm a constituent they may ask me for my address and would rather be candid and tell them I'm an irate citizen from NY!

Rush just played an interview between some radio guy and this dick head. That's where I heard him say he was mis quoted.

My message to this slimeball:

---------------------

Rep. Meehan,

I read this morning with great indignation that you said:

"I don't buy the notion Air Force One was a target. That's just PR. That's just spin."

I am not a constituent of yours, and thankfully never will be.

This tragedy presents a unique opportunity for all Americans to unite in a way we have not seen in years.

Your derision of our President as a spin doctor (like our former President) just shows the petty person you are, and that you are using this tragedy to score political points.

Furthermore, I personally consider such statements to be an act of treason.

If you cannot put party politics and sniping aside in a time when America needs you to do the job you were elected for, then you need to resign.

I am sure that the "elected" bodies of such paragons of good government as Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan would be happy to have you.

.

With utter disgust,

[Teacup]

Good deal! Well said!
