Two hours of "breaking news" for an anxiety attack ?
And we are supposed to lend these people credibility? Vaseline and matches? Where did that come from? What the hell is going on with this damn country?

4. Yes. I was on MSNBC just as they were debating the H. Clinton attack
some kind of an ad, and, it appears, with typos?

I wish someone could elaborate on that. Seems that the "countdown" was really pissed.

6. Here's the scoop
Stanton put out an ad with the word "fascist" misspelled that claims Hillary voted against the Patriot Act and shows her pic next to Osama's. The ad was supposedly never aired but the Stanton Campaign replaced it an hour later with a new one - with "fascist" spelled correctly. (Hillary still compared to Osama). The ad is factually incorrect because Hillary support the original Patriot Act and it's renewal.

7. The same ones that escorted Payne Stewart's plane but were not
around on 9/11, I guess. They only bring the fighters out for Golfers and folks who have Panic Attacks on planes. :eyes:

14. F-16s were scrambled to shoot the plane down if she hadn't simmered down!
No more flying for me.

15. I posted way back at the last "disruptive passenger" incident
Edited on Wed Aug-16-06 12:41 PM by KoKo01
that I had a panic attack on a plane just after we had boarded and had to rush off the plane before it took off. That was about eight years ago and if it had happened during Bush years they would probably have shot me. I grabbed my bag out of the overhead and rushed off just as they were closing the door. I was very quiet about it but rushed off in such a way that passengers noticed. I literally ran through that boarding tunnel to get away from that plane...

I think all the terra, terra, terra is causing lots of folks who have borderline claustraphobia to panic in the stress. Lots of folks must have to take meds to fly in these times. Good for the pharma companies, though.

16. Absolutely. Bush shakes everyone up with the terror alert...
...then when you react with anxiety, panic or yes, terror, you are in danger of being rubbed out!

18. A KICK! Since Andrew Sullivan has come out questioning this...we
might think that we are "not alone" here with some skepticism. :shrug:

Here's the link for a very good read:
