So does this bombing in Manhatten

[EC]

mean Bushy isn't keeping us safe from terrorists, since they keep citing the fact that there hasn't been any attacks with him in office? Or will it be written off as something else?

3. I would normally blame * for a bomb, but this one was lame.

Even he would want to do more than break a few windows. Probably not even the strength of a full stick of TNT.

4. The safe bet is that it will be written off as insignificant!

As disgusting as it may sound, since no one died MSM will not hold the misadministration responsible.

7. Maybe it was to remind the voters in England

That there are still terrorists out there, and that they better keep Tony in power to "protect" them.

It happened around 3am here so that would be about the time the polls open over there

8. Naw, there hasn't been

another simultaneous hijack of four commercial airliners on September 11th that crashed into two NY buildings, the Pentagon, and a Pennsylvania field SINCE 2001, under George W. Bush.

Nothing else is a "terrorist attack" - so forget about the Anthrax mailings, the DC sniper, the abortion clinic bombs, any assaults on anybody who might resemble a middle eastern person.

Well, unless you count environmentalists and pie-throwers . . . those are the real terrorists . . .

9. T'was a bit of black powder in a couple of toy hand grenades
