What happened to the ANTHRAX KILLER story?
- Yet another story that has disappeared down the memory hole.

- Worse...another terrorist still at large.

- George Bush*...keeping America safe for terrorists.

3. Extremely strange that there was never a resolution to this story...
- Did they ever find the guilty parties? How do they know it won't happen again if the terrorist(s) are still running free?

2. Hey I pissed off some Bu$h canvass people about this today!
They walked away when I asked "why do you suppose Dem leaders and Network Anchors received those letters?".

They skulked away mumbling about conspiracy theorists. }(

4. It was Anthrax. People died. Representatives threatened.
- This isn't a conspiracy. And neither is the fact that the killer has never been caught.

- Here's a conspiracy theory: the anthrax came from a government lab. Perhaps the killer wasn't caught on purpose?

6. Too many scandals
Too many Scott Petersons.

Too little attention span.

8. The anthrax killer served his purpose
He silenced any discussion of or opposition to the curtailment of our civil liberties then he went quietly away. No reason to keep beating a dead horse. What's a few dead mailhanders in the grand scheme of things?

Besides the feds and the DOJ have more pressing issues to pursue, i.e.

people who sell bongs

prostitutes

cancer patients who smoke weed

people who pirate movies

9. No Flu Shots- no story

let's move on.

Bush reassured us that he was not going to get a flu shot.

This can KILL thousands of people.

11. They put it in the drawer for a day when they needed it
The story ceased being politically expedient, so into file 13 it went. But it will come back from the dead the moment they can exploit it again. Along with..."quick...everyone cover your house in plastic and duct tape!"
