I’m hard pressed to understand why an explosion in SF would cause Bill O’Reilly to get “wood”?

“Underground Explosion Shakes SF Financial District”

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “SAN FRANCISCO (CBS 5 / KCBS) An underground explosion at a Pacific, Gas and Electric Co. vault shook the San Francisco financial district late Tuesday afternoon, but caused no injuries, according to the fire department.

The blast took place at Drumm and California streets just after 4 p.m. and jolted guests at the nearby Hyatt Embarcadero.”

Utilities explosions from underground utility lines are a big problem in New York City, where there are a lot of buried steam pipes and electrical cables. Wasn’t there a massive steam pipe explosion in NYC just last year that scared the heck out of everyone?

He’s made a lot of hey about the cities nit-wit politics (hostility to military, Pat riot act etc.) and basically wished a terrorist attack on the city.

To the best of knowledge, Bill did not make any statement for a “wish of a terrorist attack” against SF. What he did say is that were there to be a terrorist attack that our military should tell SF, “Sorry, you’re on your own”. That’s much different than wishing for an attack.

That goes all the way up the chain of command to those who run the city who oppose any promotion or protection of the US military there.

Not really. Why would he bring it up? Collective punsihment for American cities on our own soil?

And last time I checked President Bush was commander-in-chief not some dirty old man.

I read somewhere that they (SF) have just built a monument to the commies who slipped out of the country to fight in the “Lincoln Brigade” in the Spanish Civil War.

Guess is you are a red lefty and fight in an “approved leftist war” then you are good to go in SF.

They should pull out all involvement in the community. Total boycott at least until the Commies who prevent our military shooting an advertisment on the Golden Gate Bridge and nsimilar “shocking” acts by the shadow government are put to a halt. Run them out of office.

Either there should be an economic boycott by the military or they should move out and bill the city for the cost.
