What ever happened to the Miami Seven?
One day they're talking about blowing up the Sears Tower. The next day, they've disappeared somewhere into Bushville. Are they in Gitmo? Have they been "rendered" to Syria or Egypt? Is Dick Cheney using them for target practice?

They're just gone. Poof! It's like they never existed. Hey, there's another possibility. Maybe they were just seven guys who Karl Rove hired for a few days, paid off, and then either dropped them off in California or dropped them from a helicopter into the ocean.

I guess we're just going to have to live with this mystery until we can retake control of our government, search through the mountain of shredded and burned ashes, and maybe find a clue somewhere.

Well, at least we can all sleep at night knowing that Bush & Co. are busy protecting us from evil doers.

3. News Cycle Over
Today it's the Holland Tunnel.

There's a planned weekly "news" event
intended to raise terror fears all the
way to election.... just watch and see.

Where have all the fearless journalists gone ????

5. There was a bail hearing Wednesday.
(BBC News)

Chicago plot suspects denied bail

Six men charged with plotting to blow up the Sears Tower in Chicago and
FBI offices have been denied bail.

The six have pleaded not guilty to charges they tried to help al-Qaeda wage
war against the US government.

Lawyers for the accused said their clients were manipulated by paid FBI
informants and that the case against them was overblown.

But a Miami judge refused to free the men on bail, saying they posed a danger
to the community.

6. Thanks for the reminder - victims of Rovian plot
to scare people into voting for the repugs. Who else will be sacrificed for their power struggle?
