The Worst-Case Scenario

CBS News, 60 Minutes ^ | 01.29.06

[Coleus]

Radiation sickness drug could save thousands

[joonbug]

Would "best case scenario" place CBS at ground zero?

[Paladin2]

Mecca assured destruction. MAD.

[Rocko]

Would "best case scenario" place CBS at ground zero?

Only if it included ABC, NBC, CNN, and NPR.

This is raw stock tooting by Sixty Minutes. 100,000 acute cases of rad posioning is a lot more than small nuclear device would deliver even if set off in Union City NJ -- imo.

[gotribe]

Would "best case scenario" place CBS at ground zero?

Unlikely. The CBS building is also known as Black Rock, and of course the muslims worship a black rock. The two have much in common.

[Doogle]

SHUUUUUUUSH!! CBS....your scaring Hilderbeast

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

Am I sure I want to be 'saved" and be around for what follows in this country after an attack? What a F...g nitemare. And our congress is just a ship of Fools. I am so depressed I am going out to get ice cream.

[CROSSHIGHWAYMAN]

Democrats and a few Republicans are hell-bent on welcoming this kind of calamity!

It's not fair listening to the terrorists' cell phone calls.

Why doesn't Congress just make a law requiring every other American to be beheaded by Christmas!?

[Alexander Rubin]

Ping for later reading.

>That’s because the Pentagon — after decades of searching — believes it has found a drug to treat radiation exposure. Why isn’t that drug available?

So, the Pentagon
knocks on your door, and they want
to give you a shot.

How many Freepers
are gonna roll up their sleeves
and get injected?!

[dirtbiker]

Would he fire Simonson if it was his decision to make? "I would transfer him out of this. I wouldn’t have him handling this program,"

Typical Government response.... Never fire the worthless SOB, just promote him "out of the department"....

[Triggerhippie]

Even the worst case scenario isn't all that bad...

1) Muslims nuke a major city (most are predominantly democratic bastions)
2) The attack results in fewer DUmmies to steal elections/cause crime/murder the unborn/vote for socialists/live off the government teat.
3) We "honor their memory" by nuking Mecca.

I can live with that.

[right right]

I suggest they hit San Francisco, Vermont, or Massataxus.

[mkjessup]

Yeah, but for Howard Dean and the rest of the DefeatoCrats, the "Worst Case Scenario" is really the "Best Case Scenario" because a nuclear terrorist attack opens up the door to all sorts of political opportunities in which the 'Rats can blame the Republican Party for a "miserable failure" (thank YOU Dick Gephardt) in allowing such an attack to take place, you can bet your last dime that while Red Cross teams are trying to save lives, the 'Rat Party will be trying to assess their chances for seizing power at the earliest opportunity.

Cynical? Not at all. This is based on the proven behavior of the Wellstoners and King "mourners" who have demonstrated what their priorities are.

[Rocko]

Why doesn't Congress just make a law requiring every other American to be beheaded by Christmas!?

Sorry. That law would honor the "Winter Holiday."

[Brilliant]

"We can no longer ignore the worst-case scenario of a nuclear terrorist attack on an American city."




Hmmmmm... I don't think the rest of us have been doing that. Only the media and the Congress.

[YOUGOTIT]

BUTT CBS, NYT, TWP, ABC, NBC, CNN, LAT, ACLU, Bob Barr and the left wing say we should not monitor the terrorist without a warrant. So we can do nothing if the judge says NO and the enemy is laughing at the idiots who say we cannot monitor them.

DUMB, DUMB, DUMB
