Nothing to do with Oprah, but worry warts? Witnessing the two towers burn
and fall from my office window made a pretty strong impression. And
remember, that was the second attempt on the towers.


Yes worry warts. The response by the United States has strongly
resembled a blindfolded kid, high on amphetamines, wildly swinging at
a pinata.


So you agree that the threat is valid, you just don't think the response
has been very good.

Nice hit on the first swing by the blindfolded kid though, eh?
