The mantra of the neoCon republicans has been that America was and is made safer by their wars, torture, and economic prowess.Their efforts led, among other things, to Senator Ted Kennedy being put on the terrorism no fly list, and for sure he could not get a pilots license after that or get on board an airliner.
However terrorists can keep their pilot's license:
At least six men suspected or convicted of crimes that threaten national security retained their federal aviation licenses, despite antiterrorism laws written after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, that required license revocation. Among them was a Libyan sentenced to 27 years in prison by a Scottish court for the 1988 bombing of Pan Am 103 over Lockerbie.(NY Times). What is all this letting foreigners take over our ports, military factories, but call elderly Senators terrorists?
Rush Limbaugh is surging ahead, saying Governor Sanford was driven to adultery by democrats. What is next, the Iraq war was not for oil?
There is a surge in fantasy reasons for wars and torture, fantasy reasons to put Ted Kennedy on the no-fly-list, fantasy reasons for not revoking terrorists pilot licenses, and so on.
Is somebody a sicko in the heezy land?
Joe The Plumber says Senator Dodd should be hanged.
The right wing is the place for inciting hatred these daze.
