Robert Byrd speech: Cover-up leads to ruin

The face of Osama bin Laden morphed into that of Saddam Hussein.  President Bush carefully
blurred these images in his State of the Union Address.  Listen to this quote from his State of
the Union Address: "Imagine those 19 hijackers with other weapons and other plans – this time
armed by Saddam Hussein.  It would take one vial, one canister, one crate slipped into this
country to bring a day of horror like none we have ever known."  Judging by this speech, not only
is the President confusing al Qaeda and Iraq, but he also appears to give a vote of no-confidence
to our homeland security efforts.  Isn't the White House, the brains behind the Department of
Homeland Security?  Isn't the Administration supposed to be stopping those vials, canisters, and
crates from entering our country, rather than trying to scare our fellow citizens half to death
about them?
