I agree, it is the unvarnished truth that in both cases, it was the Bush administration's incompetence and lack of planning that led to disaster.<BR/><BR/>Hopefully, Webb will also tie it to some of the real gaps in our national security as well, such as the holes in security at our ports and continuing problems with airport and train security.<BR/><BR/>There is also growing anxiety about the economy, consumer confidence has gone down significantly as gas prices have gone up and housing prices are falling. <BR/><BR/>Webb simply has to ask people if they are better off now than they were 4 years ago, when Allen first began voting 97% with the Bush administration.Karen Duncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13954405672195734097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5640358.post-1156908459001236832006-08-29T23:27:00.000-04:002006-08-29T23:27:00.000-04:00thegools,Thanks.
