Return to Article: Commission: Bush lacked plan to deal with al Qaeda

    This report states that Bush lacked a plan to deal with al Qaeda. However I don't see a corresponding failure to implement a self serving and ideological plan that fixes things that are not broken.

    There was definitely a plan to enrich special friends (cronies); either by lowering taxes for the richest citizens, outsourcing jobs to rich contractors, or granting Carte Blanche to special friends such as Halliburton ($3.00 a gallon for gas in Iraq), the plan was firmly in place.

    I think it is evident that priorities were misplaced [and not in a nice way].

    Sept. 11 is in the past and for whatever reason we didn't get bin Laden, but what are we doing right now to remove sleeper cells from our country? Has anyone heard of one sleeper agent being arrested since 9-11? Well I think there were two or three in the news in the last year or two. There must be more sleeper cells actively living within our borders but I'm not hearing anything about rounding them up. If there aren't any here then I could understand it, but it is unlikely that there aren't any foreign sleeper agents still here. Let's get on the ball and out of the doughnut shops and grab these people and export them now before they create more havoc in our land.
