If Bush had exercised due diligence so that 9/11 would never have happened:
3,000 innocent civilians would still be with their families.
Almost 4,000 American fighting men and women would still be with their families.
Bush would be back in Crawford, Texas, sitting on the porch at his pig farm, and picking his nose (while surreptitiously eating whatever he mined).
John Kerry would be our President, and Roberts and Alito would auditioning to substitute for Judge Judy.
The Great Writ of Habeas Corpus would still exist in American law.
The world would still believe that torture was anathema to the American way of life.
Rudy Giuliani would be unable to complete a sentence.
On Election Night, 2004, Sean Hannity would have suffered a fecal hemorrhage, fainted, fallen into it face first, and suffocated.
Nobody would have ever heard of Alberto Gonzales.

Feel free to pile on, my wife's working late, and I have to go make dinner for the kids.

7. Hundreds of thousands of Iraqis and Afghanis would still be alive.
Two of the world's oldest civilization would not be bombed to smithereens, with their national heritage destroyed and looted.
