Ever wish you could be a "fly on the wall" at a closed-door meeting or to hear a foe’s secrets?

Enter the robobug.

Witnesses are buzzing about recent sightings of robotic-looking dragonflies seen at Washington and New York political events. And U.S. government and private agencies have admitted to striving for the spy technology, The Washington Post reports, though no one has confessed to deploying the bugged bugs.

"They looked kind of like dragonflies or little helicopters," New York college student Vanessa Alarcon said after seeing the dragonflies while working at an antiwar rally in Lafayette Square last month.

The U.S. has used robotic fliers as early as World War II, but their numbers were fewer and the technology more primitive.

Well, there is a technical expert for you........

I need some of that pattern in about 16 for the robotic cutthroats .

[Badeye]

I think the midget that runs dailykos is a ‘fly spy’.

Hmmmm...a electronic fly needs an electronic fly swatter.

[Resolute Conservative]

Can it withstand a hit frm my shoe or fly-swatter? I’d like to see one fly into my bug zapper light.

Or an electronic frog.

When I lived on the edge of Lake Park in Milwaukee, I saw some of the most gigantic dragonflies. Bodies were about 4” long, and they were green. They flew around in squadrons like a bunch of little fighter jets. They turned and flew in unison like a school of fish. Experts say dragonflies don’t behave that way, but the experts are wrong. They always appeared at this time of year, and they may very well be what these people saw in DC.

Wouldn’t it be fun to take a bunch of plastic or rubber dragon flies from a toy store, jam a few wires through them, maybe stick a transistor on the head, stamp “Property of The United States Central Intelligence Agency” on the bottom and then leave them around gatherings of moonbats?

[The Great RJ]

Since only moonbats at an anti-war rally reported seeing these things, I would tend to conclude that this is just another insidious plot by Karl Rove, the Trilateral Commission and Skull & Bones to apply mind control to those opposed the the criminal Bush regime and would recommend all anti war types increase the amount of tinfoil in their hats.

GMTA...

Wait, what about implanting one for Hillary? We could find out if those urinal pictures are for real...

[Secret Agent Man]

I have one of those. You get a pretty big spark sometimes.

[Sunshine Sister]

My husband bought one of those things. I do much better with the old fashioned fly swatter!

It’s not paranoid if they really are out to get you.

Don't they give out LSD and pcp to people for attending these rallies?

They probably were dragonflies. Education is wasted on this one.
