Whew!! By reporting the "alert", it may have PREVENTED
the "attack"...

But just in case.... stay away from people carrying stuff or pushing a baby carriage..:eyes:


and in other news... Karl Rove is NOT an evildoer, so stop saying that:)

5. funny isn't it? the pres speachifies about the war on terra, and presto!
a non-credible scary threat, of doubtful credibility (must be rove) and not something likely to happen.

Coincidences are so rare, especially with this administration.

11. Taking them at face value...
(I know, but work with me here)...wouldn't that indicate that he encouraged the terrorists? I mean, obviously, they'd forgotten all about attacking us, and then he spoke, and they went, "Oh, yeah! We were gonna attack them, weren't we?" and got right on it. So it's his fault. Why does he hate America??

53. Someone I know works in an industry where they are alerted when
the threat level is higher, and I was told on Monday about a heightened threat. So, who knows, you may be right.

39. i'll tell you what's real
katrina was fucking real. plenty of notice there. what did bush do? nothing. thousands are dead.

The bird flu is real and on the news every fucking day now. millions may die. What is bush doing? nothing. no vaccines, no preparation. no forcing of pharmas to make more vaccines with the right incentive. plenty of money for war, though.

mother nature is our greatest threat, not terrorism. and bush couldn't save us from either. FACT.

of. And I'm still convinced that so much of it was intentional incompetence...No one is THAT bad and THAT inhumane.

48. Just the very fact that we don't trust the Bush admin puts us in danger.
Yeah, what if the threat is real? That's ALWAYS a possibility, but when you have a significant portion of the population saying "Nah, there's no terrorist plot, it's just another distraction..." it puts us in more danger if the threat turns out to be real. Shrub's lack of credibility is a threat in itself, one that won't go away until we can again trust our government.

No wait, does any country BESIDES america go through this crap?

Nobody could be fed this much bullshit... I mean, besides us. It takes some pretty fricken corrupt leaders to create this much crap, out of desperations to be popular after they steal elections... and all of our money... wtf..I'm confused.

What's the role of politicians now, boogie monster?
