Could be the dreaded and vicious "hash snake", Amsterdam's most abused and misunderstood reptile. ;) Question: why would anyone WANT to leave Amsterdam? :shrug:

I'm guessing that someone reported some Asian looking people being aboard. :rofl:

I'm sitting here at 5:50 AM, waiting for my morning coffee to brew, and I've already been protected by President Bush!

WOW! Talk about "ever-vigilant!" WOW!



:evilgrin:

It truly makes a person feel humble. And safe.

fear mongering will stop.

seeing and hearing a lot about possible "terrorist like" attacks being thwarted by our great leader and his administration in the coming weeks and months. The name Al Qua da will be uttered and it will be suggested these vicious terrorists are possibly responsible for the latest attempt to attack and destroy America.We will see Gonzales and Chertoff in all their glory, doing what they do best, pretending they actually got it all under control and we have nothing to fear as long as they are watching over us. We will hear it over and over again so that the sleepy public believes the only people who can keep them safe are Republicans.
Oh, and of course, we will have the great leader holding a press-op to show how strong and resolute he is. There media and their Clear Channel programs will keep everyone on the same page and make sure they drive home their lies.
The evil efforts of these power hunger Republicans is disheartening. I pray the public wakes up and realizes the power push behind all of this and give the Democrats a real chance to really keep them safe.
