1. A Pathfinder? These are amateurs. If they want to kill people they should have used a

Toyota.

2. Propane Tanks? If they were 20# tanks like for your Bar B Q...

... that would only be enough to set the car on fire. Not weapons of mass destruction.

3. Yes, this does not read like it's a very well developed weapon.

4. You can buy all that stuff at WalMart, right?

6. Hmmm... will Al-Freepa or Al-Teabagga claim responsibility? This is obviously some homegrown nutbag

Can't wait to see this all whored up as yet another "terra'ist attack on Barack HUSSEIN Obama's watch."

Thank goodness this particular domestic terrorist wannabe was so stupid he didn't know how to make a decent explosive device. And since the big pussy just ran away rather than being willing to die for the cause, it was obviously some Timmy McVeigh wannabe. What a stupid-ass.

8. These TBaggers can't even make a working bomb

How do they expect to get elected to any public office
