Having only seen portions of the 9-11 Commission presentations, it is clear something must be done to improve the structure of government. Good people must not be hindered by it, but the key to change is not sacrificing our principles while taking a careful look at the process. People must not be placed above the law but the process does need work.
The hope that we can be united in this is admirable but to expect politics to be absent is as foolish as the expectation that the solution to terrorism is just war. There may be a few major changes that we can agree must happen, but the devil is in the details. It is not evil to discuss them and even words like unity must be used carefully.
