The Bush administration had NOTHING to do with thwarting the latest terror

[gully]

plot!

"British police said Thursday they thwarted a terrorist plot, possibly just days away, to blow up U.S. bound jetliners over the Atlantic and kill thousands. Chilling accounts leaked by investigators described a plan on the scale of 9/11 that would use liquid explosives concealed as sports drink bottles and common electronic devices to bring down as many as 10 planes in a nearly simultaneous strike.

The bombs were to be assembled on the aircraft apparently using a peroxide-based solution detonated by such devices as a disposable camera or a music player, two American law enforcement officials told The Associated Press. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because Britain asked that no information be released.

A federal law enforcement official in Washington said that at least one martyrdom tape was found during ongoing raids across England on Thursday. Such a tape, as well as the scheme to strike a range of targets at roughly the same time, is an earmark of al-Qaida.

And ------------------

In Pakistan, an intelligence official said the arrest of an Islamic militant near that border several weeks ago played a role in "unearthing the plot." The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said some suspects arrested in Britain were linked to al-Qaida. However, authorities stopped short of accusing al-Qaida directly for the plot. ."

Don't let anyone claim otherwise. Remind the media when they lie, remind your "friends/family" when they misunderstand. BRITAIN AND PAKISTAN, "kept us safe," not GWB.

We were NOT on Red Alert prior to the British arrest. Bush is not in any way responsible for this "success" - period. /rant

2. I doubt you will know that from listening to them though

[gully]

6. Well I do expect the media to "remind" America of the facts.

But, I expect I'm asking too much?

4. think they told Mr.bush a couple days ago & he kept his mouth shut.

so, he did help by not saying anything too soon. Odd, that.

5. that's true.........

....if it had happened here, the planes would have crashed into the ocean before DHS knew what was happening!!

And I was just watching the clip of Bush's speech on Olbermann. And when he tried to say that we are safer now than on 9/11, just the way he paused and kind of stuttered before he said safer...........I thought, HE doesn't even believe that!!!

7. Well ofcourse

The Bush administration never has anything to do with anything.

[gully]

8. Well they have lots to do with screwing shit up, but not with doing

anything in the interest of Americans.
