"Patriot" Day

Today is so-called Patriot Day, which I find kind of ironic, since there's nothing less patriotic than using the September 11 attacks for your own self-serving political purposes, inciting fear among the voters so they'll ignore the fact that you've done absolutely nothing to actually protect the country from terrorism. Not to mention that you took the country to war based what you should've known was flawed intelligence, that you lied to the American people about the non-relationship between Saddam and Al-Qaeda, and that you de-stabilized the region, making it a haven for terrorists plotting attacks against Americans. Or that you showed your patriotism by allowing massive corporations like Enron and WorldCom to run over the economy, not to mention small investors, so the fatcats could grease their wallets. So, Mr. President, Happy Patriot's Day. Now, sir, if you want to do something truly patriotic, you could beat Paul Wolfowitz over the head with a shovel.
