...around, distracting the President from his job and dividing us all, maybe we should blame the car-rental companies whose autos let the terrorists get to the airports; or the architect of the World Trade Center for not foreseeing that a fully fueled airplane might crash into the buildings, melt the girders and cause a collapse; or the landlords who rented to terrorists.
