Are You on the Terrorist Watch List?

Don’t be too surprised if you are. Just try to fly to anywhere and you will soon find out. The super sized and extremely active Department of Homeland Security is adding over 20,000 names to the terrorist watch list each month. The list now has over one million names on it. Do you feel safer now?

The size of the list demonstrates how ridiculous the Bush administration’s never ending so called “war on terror” truly is. If there were anywhere near 1,000,000 active terrorists working to bring down the US from within we would be in a world of hurt. I doubt seriously if the airlines will even still be flying.

For those who are on the list it is a nightmare to try to fly anywhere. What if you have a common name, like Robert Johnson, which is on the list? You will be detained at the airport, perhaps for hours, while you try to convince the authorities that you are not a terrorist.

If you have any kind of Muslin name you really have a problem. But then so do all those thousands of good guys with the all American name, Robert Johnson. What can you make of a government that tells its citizens that at the beginning of the Iraq war there were only a few thousand terrorists in all the world and that is now adding 20,000 names a month to a terrorist watch list?

Do the words incompetent, careless, clueless, and reckless come to mind?
