6. What I mean by that is that we can no longer depend on the MSM
to tell us what is really going on. Journalists/newscasters no longer ask questions or investigate anything anymore - they simply repeat what they've been told.

I wonder if Sen. Obama or his plane was threatened in someway.

9. WTF! Cool off, dude!
I don't know what the Obama Camp has said - I only know that we can't count on the MSM to tell us the truth about anything.

For all we know, Obama's plane was grounded to secure his safety because there was some kind of threat made against him or his family. And they are using this malfunction story as a cover. That's what I meant.

You need to take that chip off your shoulder, and maybe shove it up your, well.... you know where!

11. I wouldn't put it past the Bushies to have one of their plumbers "Wellstone" him...
I don't put anything beneath the Bush administration. Absolutely nothing.

12. No kidding.
I'm surprised the media didn't report it as "Obama Carried Back To Home Planet By Mothership, Technical Issues Force Emergency Landing".
