   You were wrong. Bush did not create it, and it's for   
   sure that he didn't "create" it after 9/11 since it   
   was a bill going through Congress starting in March   
   of that year.

   It was a bill before it was a law. Do you understand   
   how Congress works?

   The BILL was passed, and then Bush signed that BILL   
   into law.

   Yes, Bush signed it into law in January of 2002, after   
   Congress passed the bill in December of 2001.

   Congress put the bill on his desk, and he signed   
   it. Things like that happen all the time.

   I thought you said we weren't talking about bills?   
   Of course we were, but you said we weren't. Except   
   when you are.
