Just on Air America Radio news: Election over, threat level reduced.

[DemoTex]

The "Orange Alert" for financial institutions in NY, NJ, and DC was just reduced to "Yellow." How fucking transparent can they be?

1. This is disgusting....

I live in New York and I feel so used, so cheap, I feel like the Bushies have used me as a cheap whore.

2. The election WAS the threat. Thanks God, Diebold bravely removed it

All's well in Fascistan. Freedom on the march and that kind of thing.

3. but, but half of the sheeple don't realize it

and the other half are going praise Jeesus (my apologies to REAL Christians, we know the difference)

4. Pretty transparent, as the most likely time for them to attack

would be towards the end of Ramadan, and perhaps the day before as a little celebration gift to Muslims for Eid Al Fitr. I am not suire if Ramadan has ended, but it sould be close to the end of it.

They held back on a lot of things. The resignations. Giving pink slips to Defense Department workers how loved Bush, lots of stuff.
Yet these morons still do not beleive it wasBush's policies that led to them getting the ax. These people I do not understand as they are not usually Blue Collar, uneducated fools who dont know any better, but educated people who should have been ablke to read between the lines about Bush's privatize government jobs rhetoric. What Maroons.

8. Far as I can tell, Ramadan ends on 11/15

I don't think any potential attack would be linked to Ramadan, but rather to the period of time when the US was celebrating something else (like the inauguration) and just not paying attention.

11. Well considering the significance that dying for the purpose

of a Holy War to Muslims during Ramadan, I would think that it was a most liely period. To die atacking the infidel, during Ramada, ensures one a prticualrly special place in the Muslim Heaven , and such a death is highly desirable to extremely devout Muslims.

6. Oh I feel so safe knowing evil doer is in office. LOL

7. I sure don't want another 9/11, but I wonder if the FBI & CIA have

relaxed their vigil as well? I must admit, I personaly was never afraid. No, I don't live in a major populated area, but I believe our security groups are just in the middle of a haystack and they can't find the needle. I'm just too damn stubborn to let someone scare me into changing my lifestyle. Some day I'm going to die, and I'm not going to dwell on it!

I wonder if we'll ever find out just how much of this hype was BS?
