I really wonder if making us afraid is the motive for the rash of plane cancellations and delays the past few day. If Bush can keep us in constant fear maybe he thinks we will keep him in office for another term.
I think many, if not all, those flight cancellations and delays were deliberately manufactured just to keep us afraid. Is that unreasonable?
It's time to remember a line from President Roosevelt's first inaugural address: "...the only thing we have to fear is fear itself?-nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror..."
We've got to get rid of that man in the White House and his complete administration. I hope that isn't the hopeless task many seem to think it is. I think it can be done.
I think ensuring and maintaining fear is a very important part of this administration's strategy.
Fear
My fear is that this present regime will be re-elected.
It seems that the Dems don't want to win and that the Clintons want this country to be totally miserable until the 2008 elelctions so that Hillary can run ans win.
Bush will either be reelected or defeated at the pleasure of the American people not wishful thinking. At this point those vying for the democratic nomination would appear to be his greatest enablers.

Bullcrap!
The dems can't win because they have no platform to stand on and the party is in complete disarray. Hillary, if she ran in 04 is probably the only one who would stand a chance. A slim one but a chance. The rest seem to be running around like chickens with their heads cut off.
Hey, John, Absolutely! Fear is the thing that turns us into id-like creatures. As FDR once observed: "There is nothing to fear, but fear itself."
