Blame Canada...

I know that personally at the start of the blackout when no one knew what was goin on, I immediately thought it was a terrorist attack. Maybe it's cause we've been conditioned to simply think the worst. But even though now that we know it was not a terrorist act.

Doesn't it raise the question of what the fuck is tom ridge and homeland security doing? What is our own goverment doing to protect us? No one had a fuckin clue on what to do and no one seemed prepared. No one knew how to get people out, no one knew how to return the power swiftly, everyone seemed lost.

Bloomberg is on TV telling people to drink water and that this is a bad thing, thanks for the heads up. I didn't expect it to take 30 minutes but not a 24 hour period. It was probably a thought for some terroists to maybe knock out our electrical systems but they probably thought as many americans did that after 9/11 our goverment would have taken steps to protect this from ever happening.

Now they see that our goverment has done nothing but install a color coded chart on "predicting" terrorist attacks, you'd have had better luck with a magic 8-ball.

It made us look weak and should make people question where the priorities of our president and elected officials lie. Spending countless billions on wars that have not done anything but complicate our position in the world, yet we have an antiquated power grid that crippled us due to a friggin power surge.
