The return of politics

At last, Americans are asking whether their government did enough to protect them on September 11:

“Normal service has resumed. After eight months off the air, American politics is back. Republicans are once more hurling abuse at Democrats, Democrats are slamming Republicans, while Capitol Hill and the White House have returned to their traditional posture: at loggerheads. At long last, the September 11 bubble of bipartisan consensus – in which even to question the Bush administration’s war against terrorism was seen as unpatriotic – has burst.” Guardian UK
