I remember reading that Linda Daschle.....yes, Little Tommy's wife.....who is an airline lobbyist was successful in getting Algore to water down his "suggestions" to improve the safety at airports.

I wonder if the 9-11 families know what Mrs. Daschle was up to?

There was a whole list of recommendations that were generated by a committee to enhance airport security. The airlines lobbied against the expense of such improvements and while the bill was actually brought to the Senate floor and I believe 98 Senators voted FOR the improvements, Clinton vetoed the bill.
There must be a freeper who can bring that information to our forum. It was reported on just withing this past week.
