When the “Terrorist” Dog Has Five legs.
The Hairy Beast Blog ^ | August 30, 2006 – 4:08 pm | The Hairy beast

Posted on 08/30/2006 1:13:13 PM PDT by Mongeaux

Abe Lincoln once posited an interesting conundrum:

Q. If you call a tail a leg, how many legs has a dog? A. Four. Calling a tail a leg doesn’t make it a leg!

It apears that every few months or so a five-legged dog decides to run amok in our country and kill people - often of Jewish extraction - prompting the media to do its best to withhold certain details which might cause the public to jump to certain wildly unreasonable conclusions.

Case in point: yesterday a 29 year old man in San Fransisco was arrested on 14 counts of attempted murder after a bloody spree of hit-and-run violence in his Honda Pilot. The first news stories seemed oddly deficient in a way that often prickles the hide of this Hairy Beast and caused him to suspect a certain amount of waltzing around was in progress. It was not until he got quite a bit further into the story and saw the name and age of the suspect - Omeed A. Popal, 29 - that he realized another five-legged dog had been unleashed into the media.

I just don't believe dogs can drive, even 5 legged ones.

Actually by not talking about what is really go on here the government, the media, and terrorist apologists are going to cause a much louder and larger explosion when people say enough. Imagine trying to tighten the lid on a pressure cooker. Dangerous stuff when it finally blows.

We are lucky we have the MSM to protect us from bad facts.

Clever way of making the point!

Just because the President enjoyed a good-sized bump in the polls after the london bombing plot was foiled, doesn’t mean the MSM is softplaying domestic terrorism to avoid playing to his one real public opinon strength. That would be wild speculation.

Hmmm...

Isn't the Honda Pilot a small SUV? We all know the real enemies of this country are SUVs - not Islamic Nazis.

The story should have made it clear that the SUV ran over these people, not blaming it on the person in the driver's seat. Talk about being insensitive.

False. A dog has four leg units and one tail unit for a total of five dog appendage sub-assemblies.

Possibly. But I am sure he couldn't be a "student" because he is not in France.

Haven't had the pleasure. Is he an ex-Nazi, IRA gunman working for Al Qaeda?
