He essentially would have had to shut down the entire commercial air fleet for an indefinite period of time with no way of knowing whether or not he was successful in preventing anything.
The dems would have been screaming their heads off.
I'm afraid the democrats are a corrupt party - with corrupt individuals gravitating to that party. This is why they want liberal judges, this is why the media hamstrings any defense of America, this is why they attack a moral Christian president who is conservative. They do not want moral, they identify with amoral, they do not want any legal restrictions, they identify with prisoners rather than victims. This is why the tough fight on conservative judges - the democrats want liberal judges that are controlled by corruption - they identify with corruption - not justice.
Bush is going to be in a fight for our lives with these democrats as he tries to go after the terrorists, brings them to justice and then goes after Saddam. They will be obstructionist all the way because they will aid and protect the terrorists interests against us - Americans. We need to watch and ask why. We need to support Bush in this fight - or - he could just give up and not maintain the fight. Why would any man want to take all the abuse of the democrats, the liberals, the terrorists and even those in his own party or other conservatives?
