[Andy_Stephenson]

FBI to get help on Election Day plots --Agency can deploy other investigators --Attorney General John Ashcroft quietly has issued a sweeping directive that authorizes the FBI to use hundreds of law enforcement agents from other federal agencies to help investigate any terrorist plots that target the Nov. 2 elections.

Hmmm wonder if I am one of the people... "Agents have begun surveillance on an undisclosed number of people whom the FBI views as potential terrorism suspects."

:hi: Agent Mike

1. Hmmm, I spotted an Ohio license plate up here today...

... and right away wondered just who it might be. But then I thought to myself, "Self?", I though, "Your car is already covered in tinfoil and this just looks like an errant hippie who made a right turn at Chicago, when he should have gone left to get back to Woodstock....." I guess he must have been under the covers.

3. Hey they're in luck! I hear that the Dem's are going to have....

.....thousands of people watching polls across the country November 2nd.

Should we tell them to contact the FBI if they see any terrorists lurking in line at the polls or should we just tell agent Mike? :shrug: :evilgrin:







No one parked across the street........yet. :scared:

TV station reports that Bush has been elected President

WBAY TV in Green Bay, Wisconsin is running an AP article reporting that Bush has won the election, weeks before the election is to take place.

At this hour, President Bush has won re-election as president by a 47 percent to 43 percent margin in the popular vote nationwide. Ralph Nader has 1 percent of the vote nationwide. That's with 51 percent of the precincts reporting.

Luckily before WBAY pulled it, someone grabbed a screenshot of the AP story...

You can view it here...


very detailed breakdown of the vote count and electoral college seats...

Somebody should actually note down their numbers and see if they end up matching?

The TV station's excuse was that it was a 'test article'?

11. Why hasn't Congress demanded the definition of the word "terrorist

For that matter, why havent we as Americans?
