Cohen must miss the color code alert system that made us "feel" safe. And all that unused duct tape we bought is ready and waiting for the next attack. Gotta go ziplock my liquids for my flight and will be scrutinizing my fellow travelers' bottoms. So great to "feel" safe thanks to the safeguards instituted by the great President Bush.

A wise mentor once told me, "The only security we will ever have is in knowing we will never be secure."
