I'd point out the fact that your first paragraph is glaring in it's misunderstanding of actual events by trying to place a "military policy component".The 9-11 terrorist attacks were not "military attacks". The 9-11 terrorist attacks were a group of simple hijackings. Simple hijackings that should have always been stopped because Airline security should have always been to a standard where a passenger couldn't just walk into the cockpit. Plus the thing that's especially telling is the Right spends a lot of time beating their chest (no offense Rob) that there were no more terrorist attacks on American soil... while skimming right over the real deal which is that the biggest terrorist attack on American soil of all times was accomplished >>>>>>>>>>>>> UNDER GEORGE BUSH'S WATCH WHEN THE REPUBLICANS ALSO HELD BOTH HOUSES OF CONGRESS AND COULD HAVE PUSHED THROUGH ANY SECURITY IMPROVEMENTS THEY HAD WANTED PRIOR TO 9-11.I'm not saying they should have been mind readers here... no one is. I'm simply saying to act as if they are the gate keepers of great security... well no. If anything I see the Republicans overcompensating ever since 9-11 as to not go down as the "pants down Party" in charge when the 9-11 attacks happend.So in reality improving airline security (and other security improvements here at home) to a point where it always really should have been was the deterrent that stopped another terrorist attack and certainly not wasting about a TRILLION DOLLARS and the deaths of over 4200 brave American soldiers invading and occupying Iraq on what turns out to be a Bush administration full of selective intel & out right deception. Just my opinion from everything I've seen... I don't expect everyone to agree.
