    Lol, as if the inevitable 9/11 wouldn’t have derailed that anyway.

      Good chance 9/11 wouldn’t happen. And if it did, I doubt Gore would drop his baby of climate change.

      Saw a fair argument that 911 might not have happened if Florida has been settled sooner, even if it were still a bush victory.

      Evidently party of the dysfunction and delay with intelligence agencies was due to a somewhat botched transition due to the uncertainty. Maybe they still would have missed it, but there’s at least a reasonable chance it would have been caught.

        Eh, not that we’ll ever know, but it’s not like there would have been some magic to make government disfunction stop.
