I find it interesting that “we” have our knickers in a knot, over a failed ” terrorist” bomber, who didn’t actually accomplish his/her/it’s goal. Yet we aren’t POUNDING away on the New Orleans Gulf Oil Disaster. Well, we’re not pounding on it, like we are pounding on the bomber story.
Yet, in the long run, the Gulf Oil fiasco will affect more American lives.

Did I miss something?

The world revolves around NYC, or didn’t you get the memo?
New York vs. “somewhere out in the water”.
Easier and cheaper to shoot video of nothing in Times Square than in the Gulf.
More people in NYC than “out there somewhere”.
Better visuals.
Closer to DC.
More photo opps for more politicians.
Shrapnel has more “sizzle” than shrimp.
