Yes it has. This is all exactly what the terrorists wanted. They have succeeded beyond their wildest dreams. Great ballot, RGL.
No, the Bush administration has. Look, I, know this may sound arrogant, but I swear I don't mean it to be. To have witnessed what happened on that day first hand was an event that will forever torment me. TV just cannot convey what it was like. The sheer panic on people's faces. There were people JUMPING out of tht towers to escape the flames. It was more hoffific than any movie I have seen so far. It has changed our psyche, but the Amerian people are not intollerant, the Bush administration is a whore that has tried to capitalize on that event; they have an agenda and they have milked that day to justify their own actions. There is an element of the people who listen to Bush and think "wow, what IF he's right and these people want to slaughter us?" Though there is part of them that realizes the Bush people are using 9/11 for their own ends, the fear factor takes over. I think that Bush has tried to play to our worst fears, but I also think that the situation is getting ahead of him and he no longer controls it...it controls him!
duhhhh, let me think. haha, no shit sherlock!

How do you know Alfred? Do you live here? Just curious.
9/11 was a field day for all the paranoid, nationalistic bigots. Their fondest dreams of oppression are coming true. Unfortunatly, the evil Patriot Act is just the beginning.
Exactly what I was going to say patch. You could find examples in any number of countries where you could find intolerance. Why just pick on the US?
