The person behind it is a “whiz” at bomb making.

The vehicle was unlocked when the equipment was stolen.

Pardon the expression, but Philly is a real pool of crap, a political machine run by corrupt Democrats. I refuse to go there.

I remember visiting the building housing the Liberty Bell. There was a picture of Nelson Mandela there. That was enough for me.

Do a search of “cowboys and muslims” and you’ll find a popular humorous tale all over the internet. Seen it on FR several times, posted it myself once.

So, the question that will never be asked is this:

Are these “bombs” the fruits of Bin Laden’s plans or........

Are these “bombs” the result of our telling the world about Bin Laden’s plans?

That isn't the half of it. The whole exhibit is a disgusting shrine to PC

I was there a few years ago and left physically ill

It’s time for “peaceful Muslims” to rat out their terrorist brothers.

Two years ago I discovered my 3x and 6x great grandfathers were prominent in PA history and buried near Philly in Germantown.
As much as I wanted to go there to pay my respects, I just couldn't do it.

I think about this often. When are we acting as al Qaeda’s free publicity service?

Remember the fear that everytime Bin Laden would release a video or audio that he would have coded orders in them?

The Obama Administration is so incompetent that it could accidentally trigger an attack.

It is really bad. I would like to visit some of the museums. The cost of parking is ridiculous among other things.

I remember being a child and the plan for today is field trip. Hooray!!

It is a shame.

the duct tape and wires... don’t think you need that to go to the bathroom!

Perhaps someone had a problem. LOL!

“Are these “bombs” the result of our telling the world about Bin Laden’s plans?”

The Obama administration’s loos lips has also sent a message to these “safe houses”, and you can bet if the F.B.I. kicks down doors, any one or thing of value would have moved on.

And thank goodness there hasn't been one. The Amish thing was funny the first year or two, but something about seeing the same joke ten thousand times....well...

I guess it was only a matter of time. I fervently hope this does not become a trend.

A friend and I were just discussing my upcoming trip home this morning. We laughed about how we swerve on the freeways back home to avoid any trash or anything at all because we are now wired to suspect anything like that as an IED.

I guess I’d better not try so hard to drop that habit as I have on past trips home.

Thanks for the ping.
