But had it been some “Christian” white guy from NYC...A 24/7 raging news tear jerk would have ensued...

Earlier this morning I read a post that indicated that Al Qaida is taking responsibility for the attempted bombing. But that doesn’t play to Obama’s meme, so I’m sure it’ll end up being some militia.

“it would injured and killed multi-thousands and demolished numerous buildings in the area, including crowded theaters, restaurants, and other popular attractions.”
Funny, I heard this am it was an “amateurish” bomb.
They are doing everything to downplay this. Our lib paper, the st Petersberg Times, didn’t even see fit to put it on the front page - anywhere.
They did have “GLOOM DEEPENS” over the oil spill. Not downgrading the spill, but that’s much more their template. Not evil terrorists that tried to kill thousands, but evil oil companies.

Come to think of it, I haven't heard one single
"crisis"
"deeply concerned"
"unprecedented"
"historic"
"previous administration"
"Let me be clear"
or "held accountable"
out of the administration as of yet.

Unfortunately, some American citizens are going to have to die before the remaining adults in the Congress will insist that the infants who make up the Obama administration give up any power that they have.
It has been twice recently, that we know of, that Obama....lucked out....in that the terrorists used a defective detonator which caused the bomb not go off.
It is clear that nobody in the Obama administration had a clue, or maybe didn't even care, that there was a bomb planted in the most obvious place on the planet, downtown NYC!
Get ready for the funerals...Obama is incapable of doing anything about terrorist attacks...his luck is running out.

Clinton & Zero are concerned about the rhetoric from the tea parties yet are dead silent about the violence displayed by the illegal man marches.

Funny, I heard this am it was an amateurish bomb. That was in relation to the trigger, the bomb type itself would have been quite destructive if it was set off. Propane and natural gas have been used by the muslims before.
Evidently the claim by the Taliban is being swept under the rug. They posted a warning BEFORE the bomb went off and claimed credit for it. They weren't expecting the bomb to fail.
Funny we don't hear more about that, isn't it?

Yet the New York City Police Department reportedly told Homeland Security to 'stand down' and that 'there was no indication of this being a terrorist attack.'How the hell could a car bomb be anything other than a terrorist attack?

What’s the working definition of “terrorist attack”? If it isn’t done by Al Qaeda, it’s not a terrorist attack? Somebody was obviously out to strike fear in people.

Please move along.
Go back to whatever it is that you do.
The government is in control and will tell you when to be scared and who to be scared of.

Watch the silence now......unless some media head “proves” it was a tea party extremist. Then, watch out for the sound-trucks driving through your neighborhood.
