Duct Tape: Bush 's Anti-Terrorism Plan.
Edited on Sun Mar-28-04 09:29 AM by Solomon
Remember This One?

The People, asking, what does it mean to raise the "terra alerts"?

"What should we do"?

Answer from Homeland Security:

"Buy duct tape and plastic wrapping to seal your house up".

I'll never forget they had one of our neighbors on the news. She had completely duct taped her house and wrapped it in plastic and stock piled it with food and water. She was on the news beaming about it.

So many things we forget.

1. Great stuff
for a MoveOn.Org commercial. Actually, it's beginning to look like the public is going to wrap this administration in plastic and duct tape and secure the country for democracy.

2. I was wondering what happen ...
to that nut case in CT, I saw on the news. He was encasing his house in plastic. "Can't be too careful", he says. This was when the AWOL administration was trying to convince the American People that an Iraq Chem/Bio attack was emminent.

Wait ... they never said "emminent" ... D'oh

Cheers

3. That was right around the time
of the small pox scare. When they wanted everyone to get vaccinated. Another bogus scam from the WH.

Nice to see the country is finally coming out of a coma and starting to look back on record of this misadministration. Who ever though W would be such an overachiever?

5. I got a much more efficient way of killing yourself than that one.
Why not just put a plastic plastic bag over your head. It's quicker, cheaper, and.. Oops I forgot. They sold a lot of duct tape didn't they? People freaking out because there was no more duct tape in the stores.

9. Exactly! I wonder who owns the duct tape company?
I said the same thing at the time, if the government told people to put plastic bags over their heads they would. I totally remember this administrations absurd ill regard for their scare tactics. The sad thing is, American's won't wake up, they'll jump every time the repugs throw out the fear factor.
But I always wanted to know what links the duct tape and plastic companies had to the Bu$h administration. A big ChaChing for them that month!!!! I'm thinking, we need to propagate that Ketchup cures cancer and protects you from bio-warfare. Heehee....a little spike in the Heinz family fortune could help Kerry.

7. It was stunning wasn't it? A supreme display of power on the part of
our masters. Millions of people were manipulated into doing the same thing overnight. I've often wondered whether it was a test to see what they could do.

And those of us, who didn't rush out to get the duct tape were made to feel guilty by those who did. How can you not protect your family man?

The memories are starting to come back.
