Aw shit, the grenade bullshit is back
Apparently it was a live grenade, but the pin broke.

Only two possible outcomes here:

1) Iranians will be blamed, providing perfect setup for rumored June attack.

2) Dominionist freaks will scream that "God" intervened to save "His faithful servant" the Chimp.

Not sure which one would be more sickening, actually.

2. They scraped the color coded terror alerts
Maybe now we will have a color coded alert on Bush? Code yellow = Bush fell off his tricycle, Code orange = Bush choked on a pretzel, etc., etc.

Sympathy for Devil, as the old song goes.

3. Oh yeah, saw it on the freeper site
but not reports of the latest poll showing 47% of the people would vote democratic compared to 40% republican in the next election. Denial?

Another was asking to what happen to all the Galloway threads...think maybe they creating their own reality over there?:crazy:

4. Hmmm. not saying it couldn't happen, but....
if the pin broke on a hand grenade, in all likelyhood, it would then be armed and go off a few seconds later after it was released. It would take a very strange and specific break to jam the trigger. The last thing a guy would ever want to happen is have the pin break

5. Hitler claimed that god intervened and told Il Duce that "our cause is
just" after the satchel bomb failed to kill him.

Buchanan's a history buff...maybe he'll point out the similarities...
