AG Gonzales: "Latest attacks look like al-Qaida, could strike USA!"
Edited on Sun Jul-24-05 03:51 PM by Bluebear
WASHINGTON - The recent terrorist attacks in London and Egypt appear to be the work of al-Qaida, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said Sunday.

Gonzales said that although there have been no specific threats against America, U.S. officials are concerned that there could be similar attacks here.

Fine. Now, WHY DID YOU TIP OFF ANDY CARD AND THEN TAKE YOU 12 HOURS TO NOTIFY WHITE HOUSE PERSONNEL ABOUT AN INVESTIGATION? WHAT ARE YOU HIDING, ALBERTO? DOES "OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE" MEAN ANYTHING TO YOU?

All the President's men.

4. I forecast a need for code oranges on the horizon again!
They will be trotting out Ghouliani and Ridge on the talk show circuits trying to scare the life out of everyone soon.

3. Someone needs to remind...
...this asshat that Al Qaeda cannot destroy the Republic, its own government can -- and has a decent head start on the job.

6. Wow, Gonzales is also an expert on terrorist?
On top of being able to discern that the pResident is above the law and can give the official okee-dokey to torture?

He must be Super AG or something. How does he do it?

Alberto, STFU. You are pond-scum's slimy second cousin and you are too obvious in your campaign to move on to bigger and better things by being a b*sh ass kisser.

7. No shit, Sherlock?
"The terrorists are coming! The terrorists are coming!" We kind of noticed that it was becoming a problem, actually, all the more so since you lot decided to ATTACK THE WRONG COUNTRY IN AN ILLEGAL WAR. We also heard your cries of "wolf!" the first five hundred or so times. And no, we're not interested in your copy of "1001 ways to foil terrorists and have fun with duct tape!"


So how's about you DO SOMETHING USEFUL ABOUT IT instead of running around like Chicken Little every time it looks like a scandal's about to erupt, throwing innocent people in torture camps, nosing into peoples' library records, and otherwise doing fuck-all?



p.s. *if* anything else does happen here, WE BLAME YOU, ASSHOLES.

11. They have the same "footprints" as 9-11. Inside gov't information
about fake terrorist run-throughs. Lot of strange proof that Arabs did it. Lot of government items popping up - like the bombs. First they were military type bombs. Then they were made by anyone with access to acetone. There was another name after the acetone. Acetone is used to make nail polish. Was this the same acetone?

And like Spain, the bombs came after a claim that Britian will pull out of Iraq. Well, Spain was having the elections and the contender said he would pull out if elected.

This is a really sad world when things like this happen and my finger goes to my government.

17. Yes, because terrorism and the philosophy that fuels it is monolithic.
It's not like Egypt is a hotbed of strife anyway. And the Mubarak regime certainly isn't opposed by dissidents within Egypt. And we all know every Muslim terrorist undoubtedly belongs to al Qaeda.

18. this is not true
for we destroyed the Al Qaeda network when we brought freedom and prosperity to Iraq, remember?

It was right after we were greeted with flowers, right about the time the mission was declared accomplished. ;)

24. This just lead to an interesting thought:
What if those originally responsible for the plan to blow VPW's cover purposely spread (or are in the process of spreading) the knowledge of their plan throughout the administration in order to ensure that no one in the administration can rat anyone else out without facing consequences?
