Believe it or not, Abu Gonzalez also suggested that terrorists would forget that they might be under surveillance if not for news stories over here about Chimpy's illegal spying....

5. He knew using Clinton would get him in trouble, so he grabbed names
outta history (he was sitting on his ass and couldn't pull anything outta there). Sadly, he does not seem especially fluent in history :eyes:

13. LOL, well that's stating it mildly
He doesn't even seem to be on speaking terms with it. I understand clearly why he didn't want to testify under oath.

16. Don't think they had tin cans in Washington's day
Edited on Tue Feb-07-06 08:58 PM by havocmom
Canning was done in glass jars.

Edited to add: Perhaps Dr. Franklin wired his kite to some carrier pigeons?
