Faux news brings up TERROR in bridge collaspe

[brettdale]

Then they back off saying, homeland security doesnt think its terrorism.

Faux still had to bring it up though.

1. Why are you watching them? Turn on Olbermann...

[JuniperLea]

4. I for one appreciate anyone who has the intestinal fortitude...

To watch and report... I can't stomach it myself, but I'm damn curious a lot of the time.

[tbyg52]

18. Thank you for saying that!

Says one who once got yelled at here for watching the Sunday morning talking head shows and posting something about it..... ;)

[JuniperLea]

28. Know Thine Enemy...

You can't wage war, in this case an informational war, if you don't keep your eyes on what your enemy is doing.

And another thought on informational wars: There are those on the Right that would malign, badger and generally bad-mouth their "opponents". I think this stinks out loud. And further, when I see those of us on the Left doing the same, the stench is all the more vile. I have no problem with reiteration of FACTS, or simply saying, "This is not true," then telling the truth of the matter. But to bring the conversation to the low level from which it emanated, is just plain wrong. Pretty disgusting.

14. unfortunely we dont get Olbermann in New Zealand

So its Faux, sky news (which is owned by faux) or cnn intenrational.

26. Some of us don't get a choice.

[JuniperLea]

2. Of course they did...

I wouldn't be surprised to find they are paid a hefty sum for every time they manage to work in certain talking points.

6. you mean, like, Armstrong Williams level?

quarter of a mill $$$$$

[BlooInBloo]

3. So what? So did DU - almost immediately.

[Old and In the Way]

5. It is terror.

Just not the kind they want to market. Terrorism of being in a flood zone when a levee breaks or on a bridge when it collapses is no less a cause of terror has a bomb going off.

[HysteryDiagnosis]

7. It is the terror produced by neglect. We should get used to it unless

impeachment goes forward.

[Donnachaidh]

19. that was my first thought as well

I've got to wonder - is this Coleman's area? The guy Al Franken is running against?

I wonder how many cuts they've made in repairing the infrastructure of the roads? Or perhaps contracts going to cronies?

[HysteryDiagnosis]

22. I'm going to show you a picture that pretty much says it all and

remember these jobs are BID ON, and the spoils go to the lowest bidder.

[MichaelHarris]

8. I'm watching

MSNBC and Fox at the same time. I'm waiting for Fox to say, "Witnesses say they saw a Muslim doctor, posing as a pizza delivery guy, carrying backyard propane bottles, driving a Jeep that burns for like 4 days."

[Poll_Blind]

9. I'm not saying it's terror or not but one witness on Fox 9 was...

...quoted as saying that she saw things "blowing out" or "exploding" just prior to the bridge collapsing. Also that other drivers saw the explosions and tried desperately to do something but there was little they could.

Witnesses said explosion looked like "car parts" or "bits of metal".

This is from the Fox 9 reporter on the scene right now, btw.

12. you

drop a bridge on a car and I can guarantee some shit's gonna blow up and parts will fly.

[Poll_Blind]

16. Just reporting what the witnesses said. A new person on camera now...

...is being interviewed (FOX 9). Seems that people didn't quite realize the bridge was collapsing until they started to see things suspended in air that shouldn't be- like bridge workers, cars, etc. She's being interviewed live right now.

10. It's obviously the work of the "Al Uffda" contingent of "Al Fubar"

:eyes:

[MichaelHarris]

15. I'm going with

Al Fukba, that's the group that takes tax dollars that could be used for highway improvement and re-routs them to people like Blackwater and Haliburton so they can fight an illegal war.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

11. Oh YES....

And the terrorists live in DC and supposedly run our government...

It makes me sick when the government neglects our infrastructure... :puke:

[liberal N proud]

13. I will repeat myself... If the government robbing highway funding for wars and pork...

Then yes it is a form of terrorism.

[Lex]

17. Faux News: "We have nothing to fear but a lack of fear."

Jesus, what 'fraidy cats they are there.

[treestar]

20. Asswipes always do that

They keep trying to keep terra at the forefront.

[BlooInBloo]

21. Yup.

[Va Lefty]

23. Fear is all they have left to sell

[lonestarnot]

24. But of fucking course, and as a matter of course.

[dflprincess]

25. Oh for the love of God

if Bushco, excuse me, I mean terra-ists were going to hit something around here it would be the Mall of America or maybe the airport.

The only terrorists involved in this is the Minnesota Taxpayers League (also known as the tax evaders league) with their insane pressure on the legislature to cut, cut, cut taxes no matter who gets hurt.

[SoCalDem]

27. BRIDGE OF DEATH: TERRORISM?

RIVER OF DOOM: AL QAEDA CONNECTION?

COLLAPSING CATACLYSM OF CONCRETE: TERROR PLOT?

TERROR ON THE BRIDGE: IT CAN HAPPEN IN YOUR CITY
