I'M DREAMING OF AN ORANGE CHRISTMAS

[Protoclown]

I agree that the color coded matrix is something the general public should never have been privy to. I have no problem with its existence, but it means fuck all to us. Actually it just makes our government appear to be stupid.

I think one of the big problems is that they ever called it a "war" on terror in the first place. If they'd never called it that, the public might not expect progress reports. If they prevent 100 terrorist attacks that I never in my life know about, you know what? I think I'd be pretty happy living in ignorance on that issue. I just don't think they should make a big production out of pretending to give us wonderful progress reports that mean all of jack and shit, because like GA said, such progress cannot be measured. Those halfassed status reports just make me feel like the government is bullshitting us on yet another issue.
