"Control through chaos". The poltical theme going forward. Not good.
We all know that the amount of deaths from everyday accidents in hospitals, intersections, suicides, cancer, etc.... far outweigh the terra deaths (at least until now).

But it's not about protecting the people from "death" or "accidents" that could cause harm. It's about "scaring and hype" for a reason.

The reason is for the populace not to focus on the issues at hand and what is happening to our country:

- Patriot Act
- Electronic Voting
- Incredible debt
- 43Million americans without healthcare
- bankruptcy's on the rise and setting records
- Job outsourcing and loss on industrial base
- Medicare costs out of control
- Education costs out of control (college)
- Soc Security (how long?)

Nope...this is a way on containing our thoughts from asking solutions to the tough questions. A clear-headed american would be pissed and demand answers from politicians...instead we look to them to protect us from "terra".
