    Funny enough, anytime the pres' ratings collapse or take a dive another plot is uncovered. It is certain that this investigation in Britain went on for some time prior to the announced arrests so why were there no warnings, even hidden ones at the airport checkins? And listening to the Bushmans speech with all its hemmings a harrings, as well as the hmms, does not convince me that his way is the right way. There were terrorists about before 9/11 even back to and before Caesars time, but by invading Irak and bringing "democracy and freedom" to the people of this country he created more terrorists than any person before him. And he talks about Islamofashism, conveniently forgetting his own brand of this evil ideology, and trying to circumvent the Warcrimes act of l996!
