Interesting connection between the inaugural and Homeland Security
From Salon.com quoting the Washington Post:
IF the threat of terrorism is real, and IF Bush actually cared about keeping America and its people safe from terrorism, why is it taking Homeland Security funds away from the agencies that really need it? Do they know something the rest of us don't about the "threat" of terrorism? Hm.
"The region has earmarked federal homeland security funds for such priorities as increasing hospital capacity, equipping firefighters with protective gear and building transit system command centers." But now, the Post reports, nearly $12 million will now have to be spent on such essentials as "reviewing stands."
