Terror in the Skies

Dear Readers,

Yesterday, I, Theodore Trumblebunks, I, Esq., took to our friendly skies. At the airport, I was informed of new restrictions that required all passengers to discard of all liquids and gels. Some see this as an infringement of liberty. I, however, am grateful for this security measure.

Dear readers, you see, I, like all other real Americans, support any measure taken by our divinely-inspired President to keep our country safe. Unlike the west-coast, liberal elite civil liberties huggers, I value our safety. To be free, sometimes you have to give up your freedom. We're fighting them there so we don't have to fight them here, and these colors don't run.

Shockingly (though I suppose we shouldn't be surprised), the west-coast, liberal elite have accused the Republicans of using this situation for political gain. They point to statements by Vice President Cheney and Ken Mehlman regarding the Connecticut Democratic primary, which came before the announcement of this terrorist plot but after the Bush administration knew about this. They suggest that the Bush administration would use terrorist threats for political gain. And they wonder why they keep losing!

More unbelievably, they say that this shows that the Bush administration has failed to protect our country. First, they point to the fact that the British foiled this plot, not the U.S. Then, they argue that this plot shows we're no safer today than before 9/11. Finally, they suggest that the Iraq war has only emboldened terrorists, especially since we haven't caught Osama like our divinely-inspired President had promised we would. Dear readers, have these people forgotten 9/11?

Anti-security Democrats, why do you hate America?

So Teddy, does it upset you that the Brits beat your boy Bush to the punch?

no, it's brillant. A nice sign of revenge after Lamont won the primary....

Willington,

We all know Bush pulled this off and is just letting the Brits take the credit. If there's one thing the Bish administration is, it's humble in light of accomplishments.

Indeed, there is a direct correlation between this and the Lamont win.
