America is hardly safer just because it hasn’t had another attack like 9/11. Instead the last administration took advantage and promoted fear of another attack to push its own form of terrorism here and in Iraq. Wanda Sykes isn’t that far off base by calling the Cheney Gang terrorists. Bin Laden Inc. couldn’t have been more successful than Bush Inc.nor more pleased at the results of the last eight years.. Bankrupting this country was a terrorist plan. Losing our civil rights was a terrorist plan. Breaking laws was a terrorist plan. Ignoring the Constitution was a terrorist plan. Arresting, incarcerating, and using rendition without cause or rights to fair trials were terrorist plans. Using torture is a terrorist plan. Outing a CIA operative and destroying cover operations overseas is called traitorous and was a terrorist plan. U.S. companies who don’t pay taxes by keeping post boxes offshore is a terrorist plan. Knowing the levees in New Orleans wouldn’t hold rising waters and would flood large areas where people were living and ignoring the information was a terrorist plan. Disallowing voters their rights to vote and plotting ways to eliminate votes was a terrorist plan. Heads of the Justice Department who don’t follow the law but make up their own are breaking the laws of the land which are terrorist plans. Weakening a system of regulations that keep people and companies honest and food clean are part of terrorism. Bush Inc. didn’t wear robes, long beards or headdresses, but make no mistake, they did more long-lasting damage to this country than anything that happened on 9/11.
