one sure hellfire way to keep our economy going is to confiscate
all perfumes, deodorants, baby formula, bottled water, lipstick, lip gloss, carry-on duty free case of rum, etc. etc. etc. from air travelers and make them buy it all, all over again, once they reach their destinations.

for sure bush does not want this economy to tank and the corporatists will forever thank his iron fist for putting more money in their pockets.

5. Whenever chertoff is involved you can bet that in a few days
somebody will be apologizing & somebody else will be calling for an investigation.

4. confiscation is the name of bush's game--you are not all that far off
from the reality bush is throwing this country in.
