Can I be the first to blame this on those horrible muslims that want to destroy everything, or is it too late?






(Please note that this is sarcasm)

Don't be silly, it's Bush/Cheney and their oil buddies trying to get gas prices up.

just for the hell of it....

Al-Qaida could also target "liquid natural gas, chemical or petrochemical sites near major population centers using multiple vehicle-born improvised explosive devices similar to those recently seen in the attacks in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and Istanbul, Turkey,"

I blame President Bush.

He could have prevented this.

But he doesn't care.

Word association. Someone says 'gasoline tanker', you think, 'Muslim'! (or is it someone says 'explosion', you think Muslim?)

Could be because nearly every disaster thread features a race to be first. This time, I won.

I think the word association comes from "explosion" with "muslim"
