I dare you to read Free Republic
To: jimbo123
If Obama knew about these threats last night at 10:35 EST, why were these planes even allowed to enter our airspace today??

1. No can do. But do they not realize the devices were removed in the UK and UAE?
They are such dumb fucks.

23. I know - I noticed that. Sigh. And we blame THEM for running off without all the facts.
Shape up, DUers! :spank:

2. I'm already nauseated with a big headache.
I don't think I can handle any Freepers right now. Their lack of thought & intelligence would just send me over the edge today, I'm afraid!

4. Mostly they think the whole thing is a setup engineered by Obama...
...to help Democrats in the election.

Anything they have done, they'll claim we're doing.

20. Exactly - "they" will spin this to hurt Obama, guarantee it.
Even though under Bush/Cheney we had constant terror threats, raising the threat level (which the head of Homeland admitted was bullshit) - and Bin Laden would always come out with a tape.

Whoever is responsible for this - it wasn't to make Obama look good.

26. Exactly right...
I'm convinced that Rove and Cheney are still pulling strings. Their infrastructure is surely still in place.

21. What I would like to know is in what world would this help the Dems?
I don't see any way this will be spun to help the Dems.

If anything it will hurt the Dems.

24. How could it hurt Obama? Intelligence was working and HEEDED (unlike pre
9/11) and we took steps to ensure our country's safety. HOW could that be spun?

On second thought, never mind. It's not as though logic or facts enter into their pronouncements.

6. If only there were a PDB Memo a month ahead.
Then he could've prevented it for sure.

8. In a way, they have a (twisted) point. What's with the fighter intercepts?
Edited on Fri Oct-29-10 04:10 PM by leveymg
That makes no sense in the context of explosives removed before the planes took off.

11. Abundance of caution
God forbid had something else happened - Obama would have been impeached, but Bush can get numerous warnings before 9/11 that 9/11 would happen - but then it was all Clinton's fault.

14. Exactly. Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't. Of course, we all might be damned
if he didn't. :shrug:

I expect Faux Noise to have a moment of applause for the President - for actually LISTENING to warnings.

27. And you think you're enlightened?
On the other hand, in the unlikely event that it ever happens, I won't see it because I won't be watching that channel.
