It just occurred to me that another shoe is going to drop. Don't know
what or when but with this administration it always happens. I could not even guess what the next one is going to be but if we judge by the past it is not good.

Hang on tight people.

3. Three ways to react:
Edited on Mon Dec-26-05 12:48 PM by Evergreen Emerald
1. shoe-drop overload: sit in numb silence, bemoaning the press for propoganda and the stupid people for supporting him while America spins down the bowl.

2. Run in circles screaming with hands over ears.

3. alternate 1 and 2.

On Edit: a fourth: DO SOMETHING

4. Got my tin-foil hat on good & tight ...
... and I'm wonderin' about the 'missing/presumed stolen' explosives that have been in the news for the past week.

Will those 'stolen' explosives be suddenly found, safe and un-used, thanks to information obtained via domestic wire-taps -- followed by the WH saying, "See, we TOLD you this was all about keeping America safe."

Like I said, just wondering ' ...

5. I thought they were found?
Edited on Mon Dec-26-05 12:55 PM by notadmblnd
and that 3 white guys were arrested? Must not be newsworthy unless the thieves have brown skin?

on edit: snip:

Four men, including two brothers, were taken into custody Friday by federal authorities in connection with the theft of 400 pounds of explosives from a storage depot southwest of Albuquerque.

The explosives were reported stolen Sunday from Cherry Engineering's storage depot eight miles southwest of New Mexico's largest city. Federal authorities have said it was enough to flatten a large building.

The men, whose names were not immediately released, all face federal charges, including possession of stolen explosives.

Three of the arrests were made in Bloomfield, in the northwest corner of the state, and the other was made in Ignacio, Colo., said Tom Mangan, a spokesman for the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

9. Haven't been 'in touch' with the MSM due to holidays ...
... so I didn't know they'd been found.

But I should have put the 'sarcasm' sign on, instead of the 'tin-foil hat'.

I wasn't proposing this as a valid WH argument, or a real-life news story. I'm just so in tune with this Admin coming up with 'means' to justify their 'ways' every time they're in shit over something, I watch every news story looking for the 'Rove angle' ...

I think they've over-played the 'terra' attacks, and they know it. So something is going to have to take its place. What? I wish I knew -- but I'm always waitin' and wonderin' what outrageous thing they're going to come up with next ...

6. Have your response ready for that one.
They have sufficient probable cause to obtain the proper warrant for the eavesdropping necessary to try to find the missing explosives.

It is not just listening to listen, it is listening with a specific purpose and the list of possible suspects exists - so a warrant (court order) could be obtained under the provisions of the patriot act.

Illegal means aren't necessary so they can't use illegal taps to justify their crimes.

JMHO.

8. I just mean that every month a new disaster is revealed. It may be
good news for us. If you look at the past year every month there was something new.

Plame, Libby, Rove, Katrina, wiretapping. That is just a short list.

I guess the hang on tight is the wrong way to express what I am saying. Maybe I should say: "look forward to another revelation of this administration's disasters"
