Is it time for a terror attack?

Over at the Left Coaster Mary has a short summary of the various scandals swirling around the Bush administration and the Republicans. In the comments section Steve Duncan suggests it might be time for a terrorist attack or two.

One massice gas/ricin attack in a New York subway, 2-3 stinger missile downed jumbo jets leaving Reagan Int'l and La Guardia, 1500 pounds of C-4 detonated at the base of a skyscraper and Bush and Rove buy the remaining time they need to finish their work. Not much ethic committee work gets done under a red alert with pockets of martial law in effect. And it doesn't take a foreign terrorist to commit any of the above. I think the DIA/NSA/CIA have enough winger cowboys beholden to Der Fuhrer to pull it off.

You know the country is in pretty bad shape when a scenario like that is believable.
