I'm begging for a lobotomy....referrals please!!!
Edited on Fri Apr-23-04 02:18 PM by linazelle
Heard this AM on Air America News (for the umpteenth time): BushCo is saying that there may be terrorist attacks around the election based on what happened in Spain.

Question: Aren't terrorist attacks happening in Basra (multiple car bombings at police station), Saudi Arabia (suicide bombing), etc. etc. etc.?

If so, why has the mal-administration selectively chosen Spain as THE precedent for upcoming attacks? Why aren't they warning about what happened in North Korea for instance; or the about the suicide bombers?

And why are they so quick to jump on the speculative bandwagon now when they were totally ignorant pre-9/11?

Opportunism is their raison d'etre.

I have enough sense to see through the hyperbole and it's clear they want to "influence" the elections in November, and that's putting it mildly. They have not cited any intelligence to back this speculative propoganda yet they're repeating this idiotic stuff about terror and elections over and over. The better to fill the sheeples' heads so they can argue with us when the actual "influential" event occurs that it's a valid event. :eyes:

I know their intentions just like I knew in 2000 that they were lying about WMD and Saddam. So before I have to endure yet another assault on my intelligence, I'm asking for referrals for a lobotomy.

1. My favorite lobotomy?
A bottle of Glenfiddich.
Most effective.

3. The message is clear
Bush is saying, "We're going to 'slip up' and let another terrorist attack happen just before the elections. But we're Americans - we're not wusses like those Spaniards, are we? That's right, we're not. So when we get hit, you're gonna look those terrorists in the eye, vote for me, and say 'YOU CAN'T TAKE MY FREEDOM YOU BASTARDS!!'"

8. You don't get to opt out that easily, friend
We need people of perception and intelligence now more than ever. Once you move out of that corner, there's no going back.

Kinda like the red pill and the blue pill. (I forget which was which so I can't tell you which I'd rather have taken except to say I wouldn't go back to being ignorant)

I do recommend a nice chilled white and a movie about fighting the good fight, like Casablanca.
