Brits have lucked out the past couple of days. They discovered two poorly designed bomb cars in London, & captured two inept loonies attempting to ram a flaming jeep inside the Glasgow Airport terminal. Perhaps timed to rattle a new Downing Street occupant. I'm relieved it happened there rather than here in the USA, because the British don't fall to pieces over terrorist acts, even when they're hit in bunches. They'll deal with it without heaving constitutional law into the Thames. So watch how the people of Great Britain handle it, & when it happens here, as it probably will, maybe we'll remain calm enough to prevent the Cheney/Bush junta from foisting more abuses of power upon a frightened, unprepared country. & for heavens sake, let's stay out of the way & not screw up their police investigation this time.
