In the Adam Sandler movie "Anger Management", during the plane scene, are the stewardess and security guard referring to a specific event or issue when they repeatedly say that the country is "going through a difficult time right now", or was this just made up for comedic effect?
Post Body

The movie was released in, and is set in 2003. My first thought is it might be referring to 9/11, but I don't know if over a year later they would still consider the country to be "going through a difficult time right now". Did the writers have a specific event or hardship in mind when they wrote that into the script, or was that line arbitrarily written in for comedic effect?
