Barack Obama Is Warned To Beware Of A ‘Huge Threat’ From Al-Qaeda

Barack Obama is being given ominous advice from leaders on both sides of the Atlantic to brace himself for an early assault from terrorists.

General Michael Hayden, director of the CIA, this week acknowledged that there were dangers during a presidential transition when new officials were coming in and getting accustomed to the challenges. But he added that no “real or artificial spike” in intercepted transmissions from terror suspects had been detected.

President Bush has repeatedly described the acute vulnerability of the US during a transition. The Bush Administration has been defined largely by the 9/11 attacks, which came within a year of his taking office.

His aides have pointed to al-Qaeda’s first assault on the World Trade Centre, which occurred little more than a month after Bill Clinton became President in 1993. There was an alleged attempt to bomb Glasgow airport in Gordon Brown’s first days in Downing Street and a London nightclub attack was narrowly thwarted.

Hope he just gives them a big hug. It will be an East Coast city they take out, which will be no great loss to the Country, while showing the Libs, Bush was right.

Nothing against Blacks, but they never look right in cowboy hats.

I gotta disagree a bit on this as one of my favorite actors, Clarence Gilyard, Jr., looked mighty fine in a cowboy hat when he played Ranger James 'Jimmy' Trivette on Walker, Texas Ranger.

They won’t attack, The chosen one promised the jihadis that he would put a goat in every bordello.

Whgat a horrible thing to say!

I have to wonder if you are a disruptor or troll.

No God fearing conservative would say such a thing, IMHO.

That and so much more.

“After numerous rounds of ‘We don’t even know if Osama is still alive’,
Barrack Hussein Obama has now been telling everyone he will capture Osama Bin Laden when elected.”So, Osama himself decided to send Barrack Hussein Obama a letter in his own handwriting to let him know he was still in the game.Obama opened the letter and it contained a single line of coded message: 370H-SSV-0773H Obama was baffled, so he e-mailed it to Howard Dean.Dean and the DNC and his aides had no clue either, so they sent it to Joe Biden.Joe Biden could not solve so it was sent to the FBI and the CIA.Eventually they asked John McCain and his Staff to look at it.And within a minutes McCain’s Staff e-mailed Obama with this reply:
‘Tell Obama he’s holding the message upside down’.

Good Lord,,what is wrong with you.

An east coast city being taken out would be an assault of hideous proportion on all of us.

How can you be so cavalier?

Man, you need to think before you pop off.

“Intelligence chiefs on both sides of the Atlantic have indicated that such warnings refer more to a general sense of foreboding than fear of an imminent or specific plan.”

Hey.....join the club! We all have a sense of forboding about Obama and Osama!

Never thought I’d say this, but I think he looks pretty good in that hat. I think he looks gay without the hat.
