'LA plot foiled!!!!'......they really think we're stupid
O'Reilly builds on the W claim

he said yesterday the attack was foiled b/c plotter was 'roughed up' and therefore confessed.......so all the liberals out there worried about civil rights, 'Patriot' Act, and torture are just not living in the modern world, if not worse

HOW CAN ANYONE BELIEVE THERE WAS A FOILED PLOT????????????

how convenient we're told about this now when people, even republican congress people, are concerned about the 'Patriot' Act and domestic spying.......this 'foiled plot' just PROVES W and his administration are 'just doing their job, ma'am, protecting the US from nasty terra'ists'

in the immortal words of the 50s GOOD GRIEF, CHARLIE BROWN!

5. yeah, I liked that one, too...
So, does the shoe turn into a grenade that the hijacker tosses at the cockpit door?

Does he take off the shoe, walk up to the door, plant it there, light the fuse, then fight off everyone else while waiting for the explosion, then duck as it comes, then charge through the smoke at the newly open doors, overpowering captain and crew...

Or does he keep the shoe on, walk up to the door, stick his foot on it, light the fuse, and blow off his own leg, after which, bleeding from amputation, he gets up, overpowers the crew, takes the controls, and does a loop-de-loop to hit the target on the side that doesn't have Rumsfeld on it...

Long as this thread is here...

9/11 WAS AN INSIDE JOB. ALL POLICIES SINCE THEN PROCEED FROM IT.

WANT TO STOP WAR? WON'T WORK LONG AS THE LIE OF 9/11 CAN BE PROPAGATED BY DEMOCRATS & REPUBLICANS ALIKE.

4. I think it's a double-whammy:

R*ve knows that they can just wheel * out in front of the press and have him blabber a few words almost randomly "terror...plot...foil...shoe-bomb...human-animal hybrids..uh, wrong speech...terror" and they'll get the headlines they need.

I guess he must also put the extra stupid bits in just to amuse himself and the few thousand people who are paying attention (mostly DUers).

8. On 9/11/02,
a guy that I worked with at the time was on a plane to Las Vegas. They had to land it somewhere in Arizona (I think?) because a couple of men tried to bust into the cockpit. When I asked him about it, he got all annoyed. He wouldn't give me many details, but he did say the men took their shirts off and were yelling and talking about shaving their backs. Then they tried to get into the cockpit and were tackled by a passenger. That's when they landed the plane and the two men were taken away. I heard a little about it on CNN, but not too much in detail.

I hope that made at least a little sense. I'm trying to work and type at the same time.

9. Yeah, LA plot foiled!
Keep the Raiders in Oakland!

What?!? That isn't what this is about?

Oh is this in reference to the Russel Crowe/Kim Bassinger 50s Cop movie?

That's not what this is about either?!?

Well fuck it then, I never watch CNN anyway, I like ESPN.

13. Last night, Keith Olberman reamed Faux News a new one ...
... talking about how Faux showed a clip from "Independence Day" (Library tower being hit by aliens) with this story.

"If you're going to whore out your network" to help the Bush Admin. with its terror scare, Keith said, you should at least do it after Bush authorizes NSA spying between al-Qaeda and outer space.

He even used a graphic that said "Faux News."

Keith rocks.

14. When I Heard the Terrorist Threat Was...
...from several years ago, I knew it was just manipulation time. It was Bush trying to distract the American public from the real problems again. And people fall for it every time. I'm sick of my country being held hostage to idiots who won't *think*.

15. I watched NBC News last night and they didn't even dignify this
by describing the details of the so-called "plot" As a matter of fact, they framed the entire story with one eyebrow lifted, so to speak.

17. Very funny they are close with the particulars on illegal wiretaps
Edited on Sat Feb-11-06 01:46 PM by Montagnard
then more than willing to talk about counter intelligence operations. If you remember they outed a fairly high level al Queda member who was cooperating with counter-int.
