Miami another distraction for Karl Rove?
They tried illegal immigration, backfired. They tried gay marriage, ho hum. So what theme does the BFEE fall back upon? Scary black folks! I TRIED to watch CNN, but these 7 guys down in Miami seem to be doing a lot or better yet go a long way with helping Rove keep fear a popular emotion in America. I think Rove is playing the racist card.

To my credit; I watched a whole hour of CNN.

1. yes, they were real go getters
they sold shampoo on the street, it would have only taken them a year to earn bus money
Go Greyhound to Chicago, they were trying to invent a hustle to get some money.

8. The only things these guys did was dress up and
sneak into an abandoned warehouse where they could pose as a para-military organization, they
had no weapons of any kind, the government knew about them since December but did nothing, they are a convenient distraction.

10. But is it mission accomplished for the masses?
Will this be the turning point in the war? :sarcasm: Another corner turned in the war on walruses!!!

11. well another excuse to claim terra, terra, terra
and do some more snooping through our private lives. Also this showing up at Al Gore
book signing by Sen. Clinton supporters smells to me, another Rovian ploy perhaps.

2. Either that or the banking story -- Keith O. was making that point
Every time the cabal needs cover for some overreaching/spying/action not approved by Congress (but should have been), they play the 9/11/terra terra terra card. It's definitely a distraction, but there are plenty of possibilities for from what.

3. Totally agree.. but most people aren't paying attention to this
The Miami officials are giving news reports that say they don't think they have enough for an inditment. I really doubt its going anywhere.... But it did hide the reports from Iraq. Which are getting worse.

5. I agree most voters are not paying attention,
and thats whats scaring the hell out of me. I'm worried that if Rove can't get the attention of voters by scaring them with Home Grown Terrorist, he might have something blown up again.

7. No surprise they tried it in Florida.
I wonder if any of the 5 Americans were denied the right to vote in 2000/2004? It amazes me what people can be talked into/out of doing.

9. Didn't these Miami terrorists get the memo?
They are supposed to be letting us fight them in Iraq, not here.
