This week: 4 Air Scares, 1 Foiled Plot, & 5 Suspicious Packages

[Philosoraptor]

The previous week was the much ballyhooed, now dubious Liquid Terror Foiled Plot.

This last week saw three false alarm airliner scares, which DOMINATED the bushmedia along with one foiled plot in Germany, (our allie in the war), one false bomb alarm from a British airliner, (our allie in the war) in Italy, (our allie in the war).

All this was peppered with several suspicious package alerts for flavoring. Terror in the air has been the central theme going on two weeks now, with a slight diversion from one weird weirdo.

Through it all we see breathless politicians sucking as many votes as they can out of the panic and hysteria. Talk of Osama is even in the air this election season, which it has been on page C-12 for five years.

We're being punked again.

4. And when that wall to wall coverage didn't work

They "found" the "real" "killer" of JonBenet Ramsey.

Look over here, quick, look over here.

Just as Seymour Hersh's article was coming out about the collusion between the US, Britain and Israel for the war in Lebanon. And there was also the polls that are showing that more and more Americans are not buying the "official" story of 911.

7. Do NOT forget the duct tape!

If nothing happens, at least you can ball it up and give the cats something to play with!

6. From now until November

A minimum of 2 'scares' a week and an October surprise. With the track record of the American public in the end falling for the Rove script, that should just about do it.

10. Is August a busy vacation travel time?

Maybe that's the reason. The best time to scare people is when they are travelling.
