Paranoia?
I was there, remember? The meme was "Bush can't protect Americans." All they did was file the serial numbers off a terror attack.
Note that most of them trotted right past all the local and state authorities to focus on the Feds.
Note also that as information has come out proving many of the accusations and hysteria turned out to be crap, that this has been studiously ignored by those who have made up their minds, and screw the facts.
