|
Crawling underneath a woman in front of a weather map discussing possible paths for the tropical storm in the Caribbean.
Does anyone have some aspirin?

2. Yawn. How utterly predicatble. Polls way down, time to scare the sheeple. |
|
I think fewer and fewer people are going to buy into this blatant attempt to spook the populace into compliance with the maladministration.

5. Because Bush is flying back to Crawford |
|
He's leaving Idaho now....and I'm sure some bogeyman is waiting out behind some cloud...just waiting to snatch him and throw him into the grips of the Cryptkeeper.

That way, it won't go up to orange.
But don't forget to fill your gas tank & go shopping.

11. Hasn't it been yellow for almost a year? |
|
I mean, what was it before? Besides, I thought they got rid of the color coding when Ridge went home to spend time with his family.

|
"heightened chatter...elevate the threat level...Bush's poll numbers are going down"
Can't help him now, can it?

18. If there is a raised terror alert, it's probably because of Pat |

Robertson's threat to Chavez.

20. they've been running this on their crawl for months... |
|
But watch carefully at what precedes it.
The crawl will tick out the total number of US/"Coalition" casualties in Iraq, and then the total number of US dead. THEN the crawl always follows with the terror alert yellow/elevated.
See? It's a way to explain why all of these deaths are occuring, according to the warlords...our sons and daughters are dead in Iraq because of "terror", not oil, or imperialism, you silly frippets - now back to our breathless coverage of a missing girl in Aruba.
It's another not-so-subtle way to manipulate how the public views this war - typical CNN psyops.
