NORAD scrambling fighters over major cities. Breaking on CNN.

Stay tuned...just announced.

Have they announced at all if they believe this was an accident or an attack?

So they're doing this as "a precaution."

Meanwhile, President Bush is on page 7 of My Pet Goat II.

OMG, that was very funny in a morbid, still-can't-believe-he-did-that kind of way.

I'll never get over the fact that he sat on his ass, incommunicado, after being given the message that the nation was under attack. Never. Why that didn't become the image of him instead of the bullhorn bullshit "iconic" image is beyond me. He choked in a big way and people in the south tower died because of it.

I'd also like to know why the Secret Service didn't haul his ass out of there pronto. Why was Chimpy ALLOWED to sit there, wasting precious minutes reading that stupid book in the first place?Cheney was hustled out his chair by agents who practically dragged him to the bunker. Better yet, he knew about the first crash BEFORE he went in the classroom. Why didn't he get on the phone and talk to everyone and anyone who could help him determine what was going on?
Something doesn't add up. But your post still cracked me up so much that I did have to wipe off my desk and monitor. Gallows humor I guess.

but they are scrambling fighter planes "just in case."

This per CNN.

How interesting.

Well, gee whiz! They have their shit together? :eyes:

Thank Goodness

Cause that would make BushCo look bad! Afterall, the election mantra is "no Terrorist attack in 5 years"......so brace yourself......no matter what they say, it won't be concluded that it is a terrorist attack unless they find another plane. Until further notice, this will be sold as an "accident"!

A cheap and shameful political trick by the White House at taxpayers' expense.

Try "fearmongering technique" and you're getting close the being on the right page.

Just announced that Cheney was pushed back into his undisclosed location for another
undisclosed amount of time.
