Bugged by safety

Look, I know what President Bush was trying to say:

Five years after the September 11 attacks, the United States is safer but "we are not yet safe" from a significantly degraded but still dangerous al Qaeda threat, the White House said in a report on Tuesday.

We're safer than we were but not as safe as we should be. I get it. But "safer but not yet safe" is just wrong, OK? It's adjective, comparative, superlative, in that order. Safe, safer, safest.

Bugs me, that's all.
