Geee, funny how they were so watchful of our security every time there were DEMOCRATIC events going on.

Gee things seem downright calm these days. Wonder why the terraists haven't sent videos to disrupt snif-n-chug's shindig?

2. They aren't worried because the terrist chatter is down right now
according to what I heard on the news tonite.

Of course, the chatter was down right before 9/11 also, because the plans were already set.


I'm not encouraged.

3. Don't be silly. They won't attack the Rs, because they're too strong
and manly. Ds are weak and snivelling, and weakness invites hatred and attacks.

4. and they wouldn't want to use their own distraction tactics
against themselves. It's veryyy imPORtant that all the drones get to watch the royalty wisely spend their tax dollars.

5. Well, Netscape has a blurb about 4 terrists in Boston
so we better not relax, yet! Even though I'm in L.A., I'm going to stay awake all night. And I'll be worrying until Our Leader is safely re-ensconced in the House.
Brrrrrrrr:scared:

7. CHINESE TERRORISTS!!!!!! RUN!!!!!!! HIDE!!!!!!!
Mitt Romney has got to be PISSED...the report is unsubstantiated, but he will be MISSING THE INAUGURAL...as will Mayor Menino, who could probably give a shit, and went to be part of history. They left DC to return to Boston....oh, joy, now I feel safe....NOT.

The four suspects are CHINESE, the report came from San Diego, it is unsubstantiated completely, and of course, no one knows what the fuck is going on...par for the course in weecowboy world!

6. This Toles cartoon has one take on your question
This was at the AllHatNoCattle.net site today.


The fact is, Bush is probably the single most hated man alive in the world today and many terrorists would no doubt love to disrupt his inauguration extravaganza. The fact that they are ripping DC off for the $40 mill or so costs for the party (I still hope this can be stopped) and told DC that they could take the money from their Homeland Security budget tells me that b* doesn't really fear terrorist attacks. If he did, why would it be so OK to take money away earmarked to protect from and deal with those attacks on the city where he spends a significant amount of time (between vacations)?

Terrorist attacks are a frightening and real possibility, but the clowns in the b* admin know nothing but politcal manipulation.

12. :nodding head:
yep.

Good cartoon, too.

Sometimes I fantasize about the day these scumbags are gone, out, revealed, and roundly pissed upon by the citizens of the world. YOu know, those of us who actually possess a soul

8. they're doing it different this time
I've been surfing cable tonight. Every station had some terra news. Tips from anonymous sources about Chinese saboteurs snuck into the country, environmental terrorists calling in the locations of incendiary devices, mysterious fires in the middle of the night. Terra is coming to a neighborhood near you America.

I'm in the Bay area - wonder what other parts of the country are getting.

9. I betcha they had to shut down that little Podunk
building in Ohio, the one they had to lock down during counting the votes because of terra warnings. I figure the smaller the village - the more danger they're in. Sure, who'd suspect the terrists would send hit squads to attack us in our smallest communities?
Hah! Just what they want us to think.

That's it. yeah...that's the ticket.

11. Terr alerts will only be issued for wherever anti-war people
might gather, or where the larger inauguration protests might be expected to occur. How conveeenient.
