So MORE terror attacks are coming, I thought America was safer?
Edited on Thu Feb-17-05 07:27 AM by mopaul
yesterday all the men in expensive suits agreed, al qaeda, that shadowy network of batman villains WILL attack the U.S. again, not if, but when.

what the fuck happened to 'the american people and the world are safer with saddam behind bars'? which is it, safer or unable to protect us?

they've been saying these two opposing things for almost 4 years now, it's almost as if they KNOW, there's another attack coming, and it's almost as if they KNEW we weren't going to be attacked again.

they boast that no other attacks have occurred under bush, while at the same time screaming that another one is surely coming. and they never mention the fact that the first attack happened under bush.

maybe, they had something to do with the firs------nah, i ain't even goin' there, nobody likes to be called a crackpot conspiracy theorist.

1. Mopaul, psssssssssst
I think the translation is: we're going to need to manipulate you for a while. Buckle up.

"Oooooh! this Gukert/Gannon thing is getting legs! Time to beat the 'Terra! Terra! Terra!' drum!"

Say what you want about Dan Rather, lurking Freepers. At least we don't know what HE looks like with a hard-on!

5. Mo, Mo, Mo...
... it's not good for your mental health to try to make sense of anything the Bushies say. :P

Simple human logic no longer prevails. Watch Fox. Buy things you can't afford. Don't look for where the chachis are made. Make yourself feel better while living in constant fear.

Love our leader.

And turn up the volume on the telescreen, please.


:)

6. Considering everything going on in the world today
do you honestly think any future administration will completely dismiss the possibility of future attacks and tell people not to worry when they know full well anything can happen and it may backfire on them if something does? They are staying on their toes so no one can say they were oblivious again, although I am sure when the next one happens they will be again.

11. it's called CYA.
a cover your ass. they want to leave the option open, so if something does happen...(what next, bombing in another city, or maybe dirty nuke?) they will be able to say "we warned you!"

16. I know most are bitching
because they see it as an attempt to take the focus off of other recent news but we don't know what our intelligence agencies may have been sent/uncovered. There is always a chance they could know something, although the chance is slim.

9. Sure enough, the Today show leads with TERRA!
The most dependable and obedient of the bu$h Media Lapdogs yaps TERRA for five goddam minutes at the top of the program. Now, Katie Whorick's doing a CLOSE-UP with a Terra Expert who's explaining why we're all fucked.

Christ on a toothpick! The Gannon story must be scaring the shit out of bu$h's handlers. Time to distract the sheep some more.

TERRA! TERRA! TERRA!

:argh:
dbt

PS: Booga Booga!

18. Shake the Pooch....wag the dog...they have no one to blame but themselves
They had used the Terra alert crap far to often, in effort to take the public attention away from the real issue. They have no one to blame for people shouting "Wag the dog" but themselves.

Osama always looks way to healthy, draggin a dialysis machine from cave to cave, sending out videos like a garden gnome on vacation.
