whats stupid is that people don't see a time frame. The lame duck excuse works perfectly since its a half truth. 7 months is a wicked long time. I think september 2001 to april 2002 is 7 months and lets see what happened then:
_____
Sept. wtc attacks, 3000 dead
October Anthrax scares + attack on Afghanistan begins
November 13 - War on Terrorism: In the first such act since World War II, US President George W. Bush signs an executive order allowing military tribunals against any foreigners suspected of having connections to terrorist acts or planned acts on the United States.
December- 2 men deported from egypt(beleived to be cia led operation)
The 2002 State of the Union address, the first after the September 11th attacks, was given by U.S. President George W. Bush. In the address, Bush said that "As we gather tonight, our nation is at war, our economy is in recession, and the civilized world faces unprecedented dangers. Yet the state of our Union has never been stronger." This is also the speech in which he labeled the countries of Iran, Iraq, and North Korea as an "axis of evil."[1]
Bush gave this address on Tuesday, January 29, 2002.
February - Violence begins to escalate in middle east
March - The Bush Administration acknowledges the implementation of the Continuity of Operations Plan for the first time
April - White house ends environmental fellowship
*May* Japan extended its logistics support for the U.S.-led anti-terrorism campaign in and around Afghanistan for another six months.
________
This is just an example of what a 7 month time frame can encompass and also to show that even in the 8th month, a decision can be made to impact half a year more.
