Did Bush wear a Kevlar Vest to the first debate
Edited on Sat Oct-09-04 06:10 PM by DoYouEverWonder
because there was a report that Al Qaeda was planning a Miami attack for Bush-Kerry debate?

------------

BLOOMBERG NEWS

September 29, 2004

http://www.nydailynews.com/front/breaking_news/story/236962p-203453c.html

U.S. law enforcement agencies warned authorities in Miami that the al Qaeda terrorist organization might try to attack during the first presidential debate tomorrow, a government spokeswoman said.

-------------

If this is the reason why Bush wore a vest, okay. But if the authorities thought that the situation was that dangerous, did they also tell Kerry about their concerns? Was Kerry also advised to wear a vest? Or did they only protect Bush and not concern themselves with Kerry's safety?

I think if Bush was wearing a vest, that this could be even worse than wearing a wire. Especially, if Kerry wasn't advised to wear a vest too.

4. Then what was he wearing under his jacket?
There is definitely something there. Sorry, the wrinkle story doesn't cut it.

Why is the WH so afraid to admit that he was wearing a vest?

3. Shrub probably has Kevlar pajamas.
He's quite the chicken for such a "tough" guy.
The paranoia dovetails nicely with his other symptoms.
