hmmm... They must really think that something is going to happen. It's scary.

[polemikos]

verrrry interesting!

[polemikos]

What does this say about their confidence in airport security?

If we aint at red we are pretty darn close if folks are cleaning the stores out of duct tape.

[We Happy Few]

Are these Patriot missiles, or conventional surface-to-air missiles?

[austinTparty]

Oh joy.

Oh... wait a minute... that's how I ALWAYS am... ;)

IF the Gov't knows something, I wish that they would just tell us. IMO, IF the citizens know what the terrorists are planning (or threatening), I believe that the common 'everyday Joe or Jill" will be more vigilant. Yes, I realize that we run the risk of "panic", but I'll be honest, I'd prefer to know what my enemy is planning. I don't like surprises.

I pray that everyone stays safe.

Folks, I have to tell you. I am just dumbfounded that our federal government still hasn't figured it out, that we have to get our borders under contol.

Instead of reviewing middle-eastern immigrants and sending a bunch of them packing, as warranted, will will turn this nation into a police state. This really bothers me.

Soon we will have suicide bombings on US soil. They will all be perpetrated by middle-easterners. You heard it here first. LMAO This just gets more and more absurd.

Any chance of these shooting down those nifty little unmanned biosprayer planes Powell showed pictures of at the UN?

[RCW2001]

Ahh yes! And for the rest of you, in your 'high-tech' cocoons....it's 'duct tape and plastic cover'!

[Humidston]

Hey, the way I look at it - D.C. has all those historical forts tucked into the woods, designed to protect the citizens. D.C. residents went through all this before and we'll do it again.

...All over this beautiful nation, if we have to! We're just as tough as our ancestors and we'll make it just fine, God willing.

A missile launcher doesn't provide much protection from a 10 pound bag of anthrax spores dumped from a private plane upwind of DC.

[jaz.357]

I have seen strange low flying craft as far away as Richmond since Sunday night.

[ladyinred]

They are really serious about this threat this time, which is a little unnerving to say the least!

[doug from upland]

According to KABC radio, Black Hawk helicopters are also in the air.

[ChuckSnow5]

Gentlemen, We are at SpazCon ONE.

Triple top secret red alert!

[Elenya]

On the five-color alert scale, red is the highest, but no such terrorist warning level has yet been issued.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't red be issued after a terrorist attack, or when the war starts?

[concerned about politics]

They're short range missiles. They can fire if someone has gotten through the no fly zone. I think that zone has gotten larger, but I forget how big. Something like 8 miles, maybe?
