Right. Stepping onto an airplane makes one a prisoner.

Future headline: The election has been postponed due to half of the northeast being unable to vote and we wouldn’t want to disenfranchise the democrats..... all Senators will remain in office until further notice
Several different “terrorism” threats here going into the last weekend before the elections in which the Obama cabal is expected to get annihilated.
Soros can order these operations from his Islamist allies whenever he wants, and Obama can order Napolitano to overlook anything he wants overlooked. The nation is a sitting duck. Will they actually go through with anything? I guess we’ll see.
Do you really think that this current government needs a law to do that? Look at how many actions they are currently taking for which there is no legal basis. Take FHMA, for example. How is it that they can give FHMA direct access to the US Treasury (blank check) without Congressional authorization?
Yahoo reporting white powder and wires were attached to the toner cartridge that started this.

So, why were the attacks thwarted? That is what I can't figure out.
Either we still have some functioning, real components left in our government, military and intelligence networks and it wasn't supposed to be thwarted. Or it was only meant to scare us.
