I was thinking we should combine all the various threats going on today.
-Egypt -Libya -Tunisia -Sudan -UT Austin -NDSU
-whatever else catches on fire
I’ve been saying just the same thing for a while now. Screw the arabs. Coal and natural gas will get us through until we can develop something to replace them.

And you are right we do need energy independence.
However I disagree with your Manhattan project. We need less government. We need to get rid of the EPA and other agencies, laws, regulations and programs. The EPA , energy dept etc. are crippling energy production in the U.S.A . Just get government out of the way begging with abolishing the EPA, energy dept, dept of interior, etc. ,IRS ,government schools, HUD , local government agencies etc. For example EPA shutting down coal plants, CO2 global warming regulations, restricting new technologies like fracking. We have enough oil, oil shale, coal , natural gas , nuclear etc to be completely energy independent if only we get government out of the way.
Islamist "forward."
Oboma has done everything in his power to empower the Muslims in the middle east, and has done everything in his power to destroy us. What's that tell you?
Uprising in London, Tunisia, Sudan, Ciro, Libya, Germany, ....in the U.S., University of Texas bomb threat by Al Qaeda.... ND gets bomb threat......
Obomas foreign policy TRAIN WRECK!!!
8.99 on the No-Crap-O-Meter...
The USA movie is why they are attacking in London and the Germany embassy, I suppose?
Bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran
As December 21 2012, the conspriacy theorits new “end of the world” date approaches, everything seems to be reaching a boiling point.
Sure. Here's one of the better sources if you really want to know what is going on. Plenty of photos and video.
.. what is seemingly the one common thread that ties this all together?
Barack Hussein Downgrade Obama
I hereby bestow on myself the most obvious comment of the day award..
Threat to Valparaiso University now http://posttrib.suntimes.com/news/porter/15143328-418/threat-made-to-vu-campus.html
“I saw a photo of Michelle Obama doing the hoola hoop and her husband was joking about the Olympics.”
Today the Olympians are at the White House....then Obama eats lunch and is off to a campaign event....busy busy....

When our enemies perceive weakness(as they did under Carter), they get brazen. Here we go again!
Maybe we should rename this thread “Romney’s Fault”.
You know the press is going to spin this as all being Romney’s fault one way or another.
UT threat claiming link to AQ

[Updated at 12:06 p.m. ET] Some Friday protests that hadn’t yet been mentioned in this blog post:
In Afghanistan, hundreds of demonstrators in the eastern Nangarhar province burned a U.S. flag and chanted “Death to America” and “We condemn the film.” The demonstration lasted about an hour and ended peacefully, a local official said. The Afghan government has ordered an indefinite block of YouTube to prevent people there from watching the clips and staging violent protests.
In Baghdad, Iraq, hundreds of followers of the radical Shiite Muslim cleric Muqtada al-Sadr chanted “No to America, no to Israel.”
In Jerusalem, Palestinians marched from the al-Aqsa mosque toward the U.S. Consulate, but were prevented from reaching the mission by Israeli riot forces.
In Syria, hundreds gathered outside the U.S. Embassy in Damascus. Protesters waved placards that condemned the film and blamed the U.S. administration for allowing the production and broadcast of it, according to the state-run Syrian Arab News Agency.
In Iran, the Islamic Propagation Coordination Council called for nationwide rallies Friday to protest the film and what it is calling a U.S.-backed plot against Muslims, according to the state-run IRNA news agency.
Waiting for the Obama presser cancling elections until we “calm things down”. /sarcasm (kind of)
This very well could be the beginning of WWIII
