About those school alerts based on finding those CD downloads.

Aren't we supposed to be building schools in Iraq. Couldn't this just have been a way to get some building ideas for the Iraqi schools?

Just asking.

5. Here's a paragraph that doesn't seem to be included in most articles:

<<Two U.S. officials in Washington, D.C. also told the AP there were serious questions about whether the military's find represented any threat; for instance, it could have come from someone innocently involved in civic planning, specifically school planning.


ABC News reported the information was discovered in July, but not much was thought of it until Muslim extremists took over a school in Russia at the cost of more than 300 lives last month>>


Okay. that paragraph was from an article about it, that ran on a Seattle tv news website. It was from an AP source.. but doesn't seem to be getting much visibility.

The TRUTH? I think that those paragraphs represent the truth. AND I think the Bush campaign/Rove's brain has decided to fucking EXPLOIT this info for political gain.. because they believe that "security Moms" are worried about thier chidlren after the Russian school siege.

6. "Security Moms" ARE worried about the Russian school siege

A week or so ago, there was an analysis that showed pretty definitively that Bush's female vote went way up and Kerry's way down right after the Russian event, while women pointing to terrorism/security as the most important issue shot up. The Russian school siege worked BIGTIME for the cabal, and they're pushing this CD nonsense now for that precise reason, imho.

7. According to CNN, as reported by Talkingpointsmemo.com, thats right.

Josh marshall said, oh, about 15 minutes ago, that CNN did report, late this morning, that the individual on whose computer the school plans were discovered was involved with planning or building schools in Iraq.

8. And they got the plans off the internet, for God's sake.

(Why are there school floor plans on the internet now that are in a post-911 world?)

My first comment on hearing this story was "Be afraid, Run for your lives. Vote for Bush*.

IT'S THE TERRAISTS!
