Cause and effect

The men who hijacked American airliners five years ago today made it through airport security because airport security employees didn't do their jobs right.

The men who hijacked American airliners five years ago today were in position to hijack those planes because the CIA and our unelected president didn't do their jobs right.

We did not need tighter security to prevent 9/11; we simply needed airport security employees to do their jobs right. We did not need invasions of our privacy to prevent 9/11; we simply needed our government to do its job right.

Had our "president" done his job, this would not have happened.

Had the CIA done its job, this would not have happened.

Had airport security done its job, this would not have happened.

The United States Constitution outlines the rules our government must follow. It says the government represents the American people, not that the government controls the American people. Well, I hate to tell you, but our government controls us. That is against the rules; it is against the law.

If our government would just start doing its job, you would be safe and you could trust that your private phone calls are indeed private. It's that simple. If you believe anything else, you are failing as an American citizen.
