BIG F*CKING HOLE IN THE "If we had the wiretaps before 9/11" ARGUMENT
They had a bigger catch than the illegal wiretaps -

They had a direct report pointing out that several people were taking commercial jet flying lessons - where they didn't need to learn how to take off and land.

This raised a bright, shining, waving RED FLAG - and this misAdministration ignored it. "No need for concern."

Plus, they had James Woods reporting suspicious actions by several people on a flight - again, "No need for concern." (link: http://www.snopes.com/rumors/woods.htm)

1. Not only did we have wiretaps , we had illegal wiretaps before 9/11
That's a pretty big hole in their bogus and obfuscated defense, don't you think?

2. "If we didn't have a damn democracy in the USA, none of this..........
terra, including 9/11, would have happened. I'll put an END to this damn democracy; you have got to give up your rights, if you want to have freedom!!!" - - - the speech bush really wants to give the American People.

3. The big f*cking hole is not ........
several people taking commercial jet flying lessons, its several foreigners who were in our country on expired visas who were taking commercial jet flying lessons. RED FLAG - People who are here on expired visas and reside in the United States illegally need to be identified and deported.
