Someone off topic, but I have to give you props for the comparison of the War of the Worlds hysteria to the hysteria over the blinky signs.
But as to the contents of your post, I find it rather horrifying that it seems like everyone seems to be fear mongering the populace and when it's shown to be a misjudgment, the blame is scapegoated onto those that actually did preform their job competently like the artists or the woman who noticed the signs.
You said in last night's post, there should be a Democrat asking if you really feel more safe than you did four years ago. I don't know if we're more safe than we were four years ago because When everyone and their mother trying to make people afraid of everything, the subjective answer of "Yes, I feel less safe." would take presence over whether or not in reality of you're more likely to be blown up by a bomb on your way to work tomorrow. We could in reality be far more safe now than we were before just for the fact that those who would like to kill "the infidels" are too busy taking advantage of the chaos in the Middle East at the moment to really bother making workable plans that could be carried out elsewhere.
