Should O'Neill stay off of small planes? |
|
I was very impressed with the honesty that he seemed to have regarding the administration. I might actually read the book. Certainly seems more likely to give better insight than Woodward's Bush at War semi-snowjob of a book. However, he doesn't seem to be worried about the BFEE. Rummy called him personally. Should he be worried? I think so.

2. Of course that's the first thing I thought |
|
But maybe that would be too obvious-- unlike a Wellstone, where no one saw it coming.

3. Should he be worried???? |
|
Of Course he should!!!!!!! I was really loving the interview until the end when this fool actually asked why he would be attacked for telling the truth! I couldn't believe it! The phone rang, and when I answered I heard my sister's voice.."This guy's as stupid as Bush! He had me until that last part. I was believing every word he said until then"! I pointed out that he had been able to back up his accusations with documents, and that helped, but she and I both know he now needs to watch his back!

He seemed to be in a bit of denial regarding his potential threat level.

18. He may have head those alternatives in mind |
|
but they have quickly proved naive, have they not? The Treasury Department wants to know what secrets were revealed....I will not matter if they were really classified or just Bush style secrets...(meaning everything he does or is told). Mr. O'Neill will be dogged until the Bushies are out of office...All of the Bushies, Jeb included. These people have absolutely no scruples or consciences. If he was thinking he could "head them off", so to speak, he was very wrong...This is the BFEE with whom he is dealing. They will stop at NOTHING to advance their hold on power and money. Mr. O'Neill needs to be very, very careful.

6. No problem - will be on 5th page tomorrow.. |

if at all. Unless his book hits the NYT top list, he is off their radar scopes.
However, if he endorses a Dem (Clark?) - watch out.

7. Bushco is playing the disgruntled employee card |
|
So I think it may be safe for him to fly. He would be wise to use his telephone judiciously. He better get his financial records in order too. The IRS be calling soon.

9. A rich, old, white republican |
|
is not immune from the Bush regime. They'll go after his good reputation first. Then perhaps his money. If he suddenly died, that would be sketchy as hell and people will know who did it.

He's making strong statements too and may not be as powerful.

I hope he has reproduced those 19,000 documents in triplicate. He could be "Wellstoned." The b*shistas relish handing out their little warnings.

I think ALL Bush opponents should stay OFF small planes. That or make sure that your planes are well guarded.
It sounds like conspiracy mumbo-jumbo. But the incidence of anti-right spoilers dying in small aircraft crashes seems eerily high.
Also, a nice Faraday cage around the aircraft avionics might be appropriate as well. Those EMP attack possibilities also seem disturbingly possible.
Remember, even though your paranoid that doesn't mean Bush isn't out to get you ;-)
