It's a thorny-enough issue as it is. Toss in about a million people, all pointing fingers at someone else, and it's just a mess.
Was listening to someone on the radio the other day (Roger Hedgecock, I think), and he said something that made a lot of sense. Play the Devil's advocate and say, 'Okay, well, what if George Bush knew what was going to happen beforehand, and he had grounded all the flights that day. What would have happened then?" The answer, of course, is that the same people that are standing on their soapboxes today and wailing about how bad the administration is, would have been up in arms wailing about how he shut down the nation for a day, and nothing happened. It's a no-win proposition, with everyone running around playing 'cover your ass'.
