In 2005, leaders in Portland, Oregon, angry at the Bush administration’s conduct of the war on terror, voted not to allow city law enforcement officers to participate in a key anti-terror initiative, the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force.
On Friday, that task force helped prevent what could have been a horrific terrorist attack in Portland.
Now city officials say they might re-think their participation in the task force — because Barack Obama is in the White House.
