Except the Tom Clancey event wiped out the government, who were all in the
Capitol at the State of the Union address, where the plane (pilot only)
crashed. If you read subsequent books (I have lots of long flights), the
act helped things as much of the Washington rot was eliminated. The new
president is one of Tom's no-nonsense heros who 'gets things done', is not a
politician, and is generally well liked for his directness. Prior to
September 11th, one might actually have considered the action a blessing
in disguise. At least that is how it comes across in Tom's books.
