"The American people expect this government to protect our constitutional liberties and at the same time make sure we understand what the terrorists are trying to do," Bush said. He said that to figure out what terrorists plan to do, "You try to follow their money. And that's exactly what we're doing and the fact that a newspaper disclosed it makes it harder to win this war on terror."
Bush Slams Leak of Terror Finance Story
So what I'm trying to figure out is this. Why don't the Bushies just say, "Hey, terrorists, we're watching everything you do, heh heh heh."? So they'd be afraid to do anything, wouldn't they? We couldn't catch them, of course, but then we wouldn't have to catch them because they'd be afraid to do anything. And of course we really wouldn't have to watch them either, as long as we said we were. Then it would be a bad thing if the newspaper spilled the beans ("they're not really watching"). But if we are really watching and the newspaper says "yeah they're really watching" doesn't that, I don't know, like, help?
Are they really that dumb? (No, I'm not talking about the Bushies. LOL! I'm talking about the terrorists. Dumb.)
Anyway, the really funny part (now I'm talking about the Bushies) is when they say, "don't worry, it's all perfectly legal." Like if you're walking down the street with a great big bag of the bank's money and some cop stops you and you say, "don't worry, Officer, it's all perfectly legal."
Oh, well OK then. Have a nice day.
PS. Come to think of it, though, I'd be unhappy too if the New York Times told everybody the sign on my front door, "Beware Vicious, Cranky Dog," is a fake.
