Not only has the Bush administration profited handsomely from creating a culture of fear in the post-Sept. 11 era, but now at least one Cabinet official actually owns something from one of the attacks.

Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld kept pieces of the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on his desk.

Mind you, other people such as sanitation workers and contractors found in possession of such items have been prosecuted.

One reader commented that Bush's real Sept. 11 souvenier was his 90 percent approval rating.

Let's hope White House stationery is the next souvenier.
