Headline only at link... 5 minutes ago.
Just heard it on the Fox radio news too. Air marshalls subdued a Qatari man. He’s in custody, flight landed OK in Denver.
hmmmm a Quaker ya think?
native American Indian who just wanted to create a man-caused disaster ...
Nah, probably blame it on the TEA Party and/or former President Bush...
Amish?
Good thing he wasn’t singled out for extra security. That would have really made him mad.

Confirmed - but admin pulled it from breaking?
Did he drop his pants?
Meanwhile over in DUmmyland they are worried about how this story will be spun!
Do you suppose he got his stellar chance thanks to Napolitano easing up those flight security requirements to countries that whined about the necessity of it?
Eskimo.
(didn’t put it in breaking news)
If Jim Thompson’s capable news crew decide it belongs there, they’ll move it. :)
I see the new weaker security standard Obama just announced has gone into effect.
Think that idiot will learn or is he hell bent to destroy us all? I think the later, but hope that he’s just the dumbest idiot in the world.
It was not a native American, only the Amish blow things up.... I thought everyone knew that.... On a more serious not, which part of him has the peace in it??? Can I help with the dissection?????
All right yall, It says he is Quatari but no stereotyping is warranted. He is probably one of a tiny group of secret Jehovah’s Witnesses that may exist in Quatar.
It gets better. He a diplomat in the Qatar embassy in DC, with full immunity.
thnx to odumbo we know it cannot be islamic extremism anymore
ABC News is reporting it as a “shoe bomb” attempt. Confirmed by KMGH-TV, ABC’s local affiliate in Denver. CNN, in typical fashion, is suppressing this story in favor of VA Governor Bob McDonnell’s proclamation of “Confederate History Month.”
Fox isn’t doing much better...Greta is talking with various state pols about ObamaCare lawsuits. She must be on tape; Fox is always at a disadvantage when its evening hosts aren’t live, and they have to scramble to cover breaking news.
Twenty years ago, CNN would have dumped out of regular programming and aired live coverage from one of the Denver stations. These days, the story doesn’t matter until one of their reporters or anchors appears on camera. One more reason the network is deadmeat in the cable wars.
MSN will tell us that the apprehended prisoner was former president George Bush out for jealous revenge against Barack Obama’s glorious success.
Millions will believe.
