CENTEREACH, N.Y. (CBS) ―

Who paid for it?

The investigation into the Times Square bomb scare brought federal raids across the Northeast and netted three arrests Thursday. The raids took place in the Boston area, on Long Island, and in South Jersey, and CBS 2 has learned the focal point of the investigation is a complex system that suspect Faisal Shahzad used to fund the plot.

Homeland Security had probable cause to enter the home. There, they discovered the three suspects were in the country illegally. They arrested them.

That's Arizona law. Those racists! Where's the outrage?

Organized Tea Partiers, no doubt.

I guess the disgruntled tea party right wing conspiracy theory will be given a rest for a few days?

I often wonder if liberal moonbats practice in front of a mirror before they make idiotic statements or is there really a neural pathway missing in their brains?

After the obamaites had to lose the “disgruntled white male” scam, they switched to the “he’s a lone wolf terrorist” dodge.

I guess that the “lone wolf” theory is biting the dust, too.

Many of us have known about the dense network of muslim fifth columnists in our country for a long time. But the obama administration refuses to acknowledge the truth, as usual.

He was quite sure that changing from a neutral color shirt to a RED shirt was the perfect way to blend into the crowd.

All people who dislike Obamacare wear red shirts, you know.

Who paid for it?

Paid for it?

That was no major undertaking; a cheap used car, less gasoline in cans than I keep on hand for my lawn equipment, a couple of tanks of propane from a gas grill -- and far fewer fireworks than many families light off on the 4th of July... Heck, even the plates were stolen.

That was no high-budget operation requiring "financing"...

To me, it looked like some fumblehand who had no idea how to make a destructive device cobbled together junk from his garage - and failed miserably. If he had "professional training", we should have nothing but disdain for his trainers -- and/or his intellect.

Actually the bomb would have gone off if he had remembered to turn on the propane tank valves. The fireworks would then have ignited the propane and the gas would have caused this to be one big incendiary bomb. He probably(actually did)panicked after the vendor called the van to the attention of the police.
