This radioactive poisoning business is giving me the creeps: |
|
I used to use a polonium brush when I did photographic enlarging back in the 60's. There were warnings everywhere and even the supervisors used to tell us to be careful with them and they hated our guts, sop if they were worried it wasnt' for our sakes. If we start seeing large-scale radiation poisoning with secondary effects being people around and about (or as they say in England: roond an' aboot) getting exposed, there's going to be a general panic. Someone somewhere is up to no good. Tinfoil hat time...anything goes on this one.

1. it's nuclear and chemical terrorism, ain't it? |
|
This is what Bush has been freaking out about for the last five years. Odd that he doesn't seem too concerned about it.

6. Good point - exactly what does Bush know about this? |
|
If Putin is involved, what are the chances that he privately informed Bush about it? Maybe that's why Bush isn't worried about it, because he knows who's behind it, and who it's aimed towards?

10. Now we know why the Coward said Pootie-Poots his very bestest friend! |
|
Calling him Pootie-Poot was actually the bravest thing GW's ever done. Whod'a thunk it?

14. But Bush "looked into his soul" and knows he is a good man. Maybe he |
|
should have looked into his past as a KGB operative.

4. I am still not sure what to make of this either except it keeps |
|
getting stranger and stranger as it develops. I find I am wondering if I should be concerned here but can't seem to come up with a good reason why. Although, like another poster, I am starting to think in terms of terrorism but why would Russia launch a terrorist attack now?

8. Someone, most likely in Russia and associated with Putin, is targeting |
|
Putin's enemies. They don't care who gets in the way as long as they hit the target.
Oh--uh, allegedly...

9. That was my thought initially but the Russians have always been |
|
pretty discrete with this kind of stuff but whoever is doing this just doesn't seem to care how much of a splash they make.

Why isn't Blair or Bush saying anything?
I think it's Putin.

15. I don't really know cause this thing is too strange for me. |

Edited on Fri Dec-01-06 03:10 PM by Freedom_from_Chains
But for some reason I keep having this nagging feeling that something could be really wrong here. But for now I am just keeping my eye on it and time will tell.

16. I agree that this is totally fucked up. |
|
If it were to come out that Putin is behind it, there would be almost no recourse, unless the Bushists want to try another regime change program in Moscow. :eyes:

5. Since you used an item made with polonium, do you know what other |
|
Purposes it has? I never heard of the stuff, but when the media started talking about this guy who died from exposure to it,I got the impression it was only used in labs & maybe nuke power plants. What you posted putsan end to that idea.

i was just a kid working in a photo studio. I just remember that and to be careful with Cadmium when I was taking Organic Chemicstry...theyd didn't warn us about the Xylene however, and if I ever run into the Teaching Assistant from that course I'm gonna give him a piece of my mind. So to speak.

I bet he's already called Pootie Poot to find out how he can get him some of that pologna stuff.
Bushie: "Hey Pootie, it's Dubya. Been hearin' 'bout this pologna bidness. Way to go, man!"
Pootie: "Thanks, Dubya! You ought to try some of it -- I hear you've got a few more critics these days yourself! This stuff shuts 'em up pretty well!"
Bushie: "I'd love to, Pootie, but I have to deal with this goddamned piece of paper - the Consitution - you know? The liberal media would just love to catch me with soe polonia ... pologna ... whatever the hell you call it."
Pootie: "Ah, Dubya, fuck your Consitution! It's not like you haven't ignored it so far ..."
Bushie: "Heh heh heh! You're right Pootie! So, say, where can I get me some of that stuff? I got this crazy woman from California to deal with now, and some Democrat senator from Virginia that wants to punch me out ... maybe I'll send a little of it their way!"
