ZAHN: The challenge, though, is trying to figure out how to live in this constant state of alert and then be instructed to go about life as normal. Do you understand why everybody's equilibrium is a bit messed up right now?
"The new reality seems to be that we have a new attack alert issued almost on a daily basis. And what that does is that puts us all into a heightened state of readiness and alert, which is a bit exhausting."
— Tipper Gore
GORE: Well, I do understand. The new reality seems to be that we have a new attack alert issued almost on a daily basis. And what that does is that puts us all into a heightened state of readiness and alert, which is a bit exhausting.
And the other thing that's a little concerning to me is they're not really telling us what to do. And I would like to know that. I would like to know that as a mother. I would just like to know that because I like to have a plan of action. So I think it's true that not only here in New York, but around the country, people are living in higher states of anxiety.
ZAHN: Do you think it's been [b][i]irresponsible[/b][/i] for members of the Bush administration to share these very unspecific warnings with the public?
