FBI Issues Homeland Suicide Bomber Warning
U.S. law enforcement warned to look for tell-tale signs
By ELAINE SHANNON/WASHINGTON -- Thursday, May. 20, 2004
http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,640684,00.html


The FBI is warning law enforcement agencies to be on the alert for the possibility that suicide bombers may attempt to strike inside the United States. A lightly classified intelligence bulletin circulated Thursday to 18,000 U.S. law enforcement bodies is headlined "Possible suicide bomber indicators," and was distributed via the Bureau’s secure Law Enforcement Online (LEO) Intranet. It warns local badge-carriers to look for obvious signs of trouble — people wearing heavy, bulky jackets on warm days, smelling of chemicals, trailing wires from their jackets — as well, more subtle ones, such as tightly clenched fists. Someone who never shows his palms could be gripping a detonator rigged to go off when a button is released. "If you shoot him, you ' re still not safe because his hands relax and the bomb explodes," says a counter-terrorism official.

1. The saddest thing
The anti-Bushies could be kicking his ass if they'd just come together. There's polls up there that would easily have Kerry over the 50% mark if the Nader people would just pull their heads out.

3. Averages...

How are you figuring the averages?

The Kerry number (40%) looks particularly off.

5. Polls mean nothing to me
since they can be fixed.Faux nuze does it all the time. The only poll that really matters is on nov 2 (i think that is the day). Kerry is going to win in a huge landslide. We need to keep informing our neighbors and friends about chimpys lies and we will win BIG.

10. Go to

Click on the graph on the right and you will see a very good breakdown. It is a couple days old, but a new one should be out soon. I got polled by them a few days ago, so expect new numbers this weekend.
