outrage is subsiding

Reader comment on item: Europe vs. America

Submitted by Owen Camp (United States), Jan 14, 2003 at 20:52

Dear Daniel,

The outrage is subsiding because of our govt. Instead of immediately:
1) closing our borders,
2) ending the "Visa Express" in Saudi Arabia,
3) firing Freeh & Tenet;
what did our govt do?
1) Bush lied to the country when he said "Islam means peace"
2) They made getting on an airplane harder than getting a job at the white house. While refusing to profile passengers!
3) dragged their feet about getting to the bottom of it (it took over a year to appoint an independent commission. As if Congress couldn't do the job properly themselves)
4) named Henry Kissinger to chair the commission (if that doesn't spell "cover-up")

Do you agree?
