I need more details before I am willing to fully believe this. They're ratcheting up the "Al Qaeda Fear Factor" again, as Bush did with his periodic "color alerts" for alleged risk levels of terrorist attacks. It was all bullshit. They're softening us up to accept more intrusion into our lives, more violation of our civil liberties, more removal of Constitutional protections.
We're frogs in a pot and the water is getting hotter.
The crazy Muslims say they will win because they like to die more than we do.
They have me convinced now. Bombs sewn inside mentally ill recruits is almost a parody.
And Americans still are legally prohibited and restrained at every turn from achieving energy independence in the USA while we sit on all of the oil, coal and natural gas that will ever be needed. We can at any time make the desert asshole's oil reserves irrelevant. And everybody in DC knows that.
Ergo: Obama is still a Muslim, and the Congress is still at war with us, as the Tea party first said in public.
Proof that it was all bullshit? I'm hip with not wanting the government restrained as much as possible in regard to individual liberty, but weren't you an ACA supporter? Individual mandates != individual liberty.
Ergo: Obama is still a Muslim, and the Congress is still at war with us, as the Tea party first said in public.
I don't recall the Tea Party saying POTUS is a muslim. Did that clause only refer to the Congress thingy?
Obama wants to sell off the USA's power to free the world from Capitalists.
Congress wants to sell off their votes to restrain Obama.
Both groups are the natural enemy of Sarah "Tea Party" Palin. Shestands for the middle class in America staying free and having an honest government on their side.
But that is apparently too much to ask while Trillions of dollars is flowing around based on propaganda dodges. It tempts sell outs by Obama's Enviro-Marxist thieves and the US Congress members equally.
There will always be that lunatic fringe that will refuse to believe Islamic terrorism is a threat. Even right up the point the terrorist screams Allah Akbar before pulling the pin on his suicide belt.
It should not be to difficult for a nut job to swallow C4 (narco runners do it with coke all the time) and swallow a baggie with a blasting cap and timer.
Yes, kaboom.
Meanwhile the TSA strip searches old ladies and diabetics and think they are smart.
Profiling, Israeli style, is the ONLY way to stop Terrorist.

====================== Not true on 3 counts:
1. We could be a lot less dependent on Arab oil, but not totally independent. Not without Obama electric cars and development of a synthetic fuel industry. Sorry, praying to Jesus, Freedom for Freedom-loving oil firms, and magic miracle new oil-finding tech will not change that. We CAN reduce dependency and bolster strategic reserves and cut a lot more with conservation. Which would make us a LITTLE BIT LESS HARD HIT if the Muslim oil spigot was turned off.
2. Even if we DO all that, Arab oil will never be strategically irrelevant, anymore than Russian oil or Iranian oil or Nigerian oil or Canadian, Mexican etc. oil will be. Because our strategic partners in Asia and Europe will need it and will buy it, along with emerging nations like India.
3. And with lots of money and clout still, the Arabs will have money honestly gained from their resources to spend as they please. And we COULD walk away from the ME if we wanted to - but for the unfortunate problem of "Our Special Friend, Israel" and borderless Islamic extremism.
People have long ridiculed Jimmy Carter, yet he was trying to encourage the research and development of additional alternative energy sources over 30 years ago. We might have a somewhat different and less dire situation today had Reagan not come into office and immediately discarded all of Carter's initiatives, likely at the behest of the oil companies.

New Obama Campaign Slogan: "I got into their shorts."
So you blow off your pecker and you get 72 virgins?

I found an actual photo of an Al Q bus bomber thwarted in the nick of time by an observant TSA agent:

@Scott...Yes.

So the Moslems not only can't deal with female sexuality, they also have trouble with performance anxiety?

The crazy Nips said the same thing all the way from Attu to Mindanao.
Start packing underwear inside Predator missles in retaliation.
I'm having a blast in my pants.
"... Proof that it was all bullshit?.."

"... but it would be dependent on an alert, skilled TSA agent."
Ok, what's Plan B?
Fox radio newsbabe says "The President was briefed about it early in April."
"...weren't you an ACA supporter?"
Is that Obamneycare? No, I wasn't a supporter of that. I want single payer health care.
