jeez, could your answers be more lopsided....

what about just "no, theres some fucked up arab fuck faces muther fuckers that along with some other fucked up arab fuck faces decided to hijack some airplanes and kill my fucking friends and about 3000 other Americans". I'd vote for that.
the US gov may have been a bit dumb in disregarding libraries of information showing said arab fuck faces would attempt to kill mass amounts of Americans again, history has shown this too (Munich Olympics, Lockerbie Scotland, 1993 WTC) US policy makers were a bit busy being paid off by the Banking and Mortage Lobby at the time to act. Congress has a hard time proactively acting, hence this financial mess we are in now. They will prob act quickly to give $700B + of our cash away, just like they were quick to enact the Patriot Act and the MCA.
