16. Amateur effort to divert anttention by a Bush supporter?
Orange County's John Wayne airport spokeswoman Jenny Wedge said it was unclear if the two threats were related. She said her airport received a "non-specific" threat around 3 a.m. (1000 EDT), but the airport opened on time after a police search found no bomb.

A threat was called in to the Long Beach Airport six minutes later, according to a Long Beach Police Department spokesman. The threat was treated as "non-specific" and "non-credible" a spokesman for the Department of Homeland Security said, who added that eight flights had been affected.


Remind me, what state is Free Republic based in?

2. They are going to have to do better than that
Boy do I hope I don't regret saying this, but yeah, bomb threats happen all the time. Fact of modern life. Certainly not worth pushing plame gate aside for.
