So what kind of terror crap will BushCo pull on Monday?
Now that the proverbial shit is finally hitting the fan, what new distractions await us?

The mutant germ-flu thing isn't really catching fire?

Nukes on Campus didn't go over very well either?

That new al Qaeda letter that Libby wrote didn't have the same impact that it use to.

Shutting down Penn Station and LA Freeway just got people more pissed off.

Mmm, so what should we try next? Maybe airplanes into buildings? That one always gets them freaked out.

They'll say that we need to watch all Asians owning birds. The alert color will go to yellow because that's the color of Big Bird.

11. It's only a matter of time. They'll make something up if they have to.
Or they'll just stonewall some more. They've done it before.

14. Maybe they won't pull anything...
Or maybe they will pull everything... off the air, it just won't be covered. Nobody but the "internet nut jobs" will believe anything happened.

There was a segment on CNN recently about censorship in China. They interviewed numerous people. Many were oblivious to it's existence. The interviewer asked, what do you think when you are watching CNN and the screen just GOES BLANK when they are about to cover a story that goes against the government? To which the Chinese woman replied, "it is just be a problem on your end."

Well today I was watching CNN. They were covering a riot that erupted in Toledo Ohio. Police used pepper spray and tear gas. They showed an aerial video. About 4 seconds into it, the screen went black; there was still audio. Then about 10 seconds later it's back on, no mention of technical difficulties at all.

My point is this...
It is easy to believe that the government has some control over what gets reported. If they have some control, how do you know they don't have total control? Are WE oblivious?

18. Syrians will cross the border...
...and seize an Iraqi radio station, from where they will broadcast a message urging Iraqi citizens to rise up and attack coalition forces.

Zarqawi's number two man will be found dead at the scene clutching an autographed picture of Bashar Assad.

Invasion will begin the following day.
