Everyone Knows that nothing would really happen IF the Terrorists attacked the World Trade Center for the 3rd, 4th, or 5th time. Ok, maybe by the 12th or 13th time the Victims of ChickenHawk Angst Syndrome might actually, well with enough prodding from Operation Yellow Elephant, be able to find their way forward to a point where they were REALLY, REALLY, HONEST TO GOD, Super seriously thinking about what sort of commitment to national security they were really willing to make above and beyond the usual reviling of those who Served In THE Military, while they sat on their faces, especially the one's who OPPOSE the DO NOTHING POLICIES espoused by the Culture Of Corruption that has decimated the Utility of FEMA to even respond to Actual Emergencies.
So could it be that all of those so called shifts and drifts in the National Anxiety Colour Coding really were merely domestic political stunts totally independent of any actual national security incidents???
