Back then, I scoffed at all the people who irrationally feared that the attack would destroy America's way of life. Now, after seeing the many ways in which the Bush Administration has over-reacted to the attack, and the crippling impact his over-reactions have had on America's way of life, I see that I should not have scoffed. Although I was correct in concluding that the attack itself was not a existential event, I grossly underestimated America's incompetence in responding to the attack. Now I realize that terrorists are not America's biggest enemy; stupid people are. I keep thinking about all the hysteria in America following the 9/11 attack.
