Someone wanted to assassinate Bush in the WH!
Just heard it announced on Faux (flipping thru) that the former #3 in al Qaida had discussed how taking GW out in the WH would be the ultimate Jihad.

Guess this is the reason for all the illegal monitoring, need to protect Dimson from some guy 2 continents away who has "evil" thoughts about fearless leader. I know I feel much safer now.

6. Well I think it is the # 3
from the Quebec cell, or # 3 from the Detroit Cell, or the # 3 from S.W. central Iraq Cell,
or the # 3 man for O.B.L.'s # 3 man or ..........

Time for Fox news to put out a story to try to take the heat of *.

2. But if the evildoers are "two continents away"
Edited on Fri Dec-23-05 08:45 AM by peace frog
then illegal wiretapping of US citizens inside the US would be unnecessary. NSA and other intelligence agencies would be within the law to monitor them outside the US. Sorry, your breathless explanation for BushCo's illegal surveillence doesn't wash.

3. When, in the history of this republic, has there EVER been a time when...
...there WASN'T someone, somewhere, for some reason wanting to kill the President of the United States? This has been a security concern for over 200 years. Hate to break it to you FOX News, but you've been scooped. Please try to keep up with the rest of the class... :eyes:

many dozens of others of public figures.

7. There goes 'fight them there so we don't have to fight them here' ...
.... looks like the only one of 'us' 'here' that they have a beef with is George.

So why are our military folks dying on the other side of the world when all he needs is one halfway decent bodyguard outside 1600?

8. What bullshit I will NEVER believe such a story
Of course Faux would be the first to report it, but the fact is Dubya is the best thing to ever happen to Al-Queda since the Taliban took over in Afghanistan. The idea that they'd want him dead is ridiculous.

I am sure someday though they'll fabricate something up maybe even hire a special effects department to put some fake blood on Dubya's lip make it look like he fought like a hero to defend himself against an unidentified brown skin.

35. Remember "The Aspens Have Turned, In Bunches."


Which means that even the repug big funders have turned against Mad George. So the one who does the dastardly deed just may be a republican.

12. Their report said that the sources are highly classified
Edited on Fri Dec-23-05 08:57 AM by bigbrother05
Can't tell us where the info came from, but it is important to let us know they are keeping GW and the rest of us safe.

Don't think it is real news any more than you do, but it is "breaking" on Faux.

10. In other breaking news,
John Wilkes Booth reportedly wanted President Lincoln dead! Film at 11...right here on FAUX SNOOZE!

This is so transparent it's uproariously funny. Can't this administration's toadies come up with ANYTHING creative or original? Sheesh, what a gaggle of lamers!

as you say, they're great at making shit up but the believability factor is nil.

Wow. That is news...:eyes:

Isn't our operating assumption that everyone in al-Qaeda wants to do that? I mean, really now.

36. Not only is bush destroying our Country
He has helped OBL increase his recruiting many fold and gave them outstanding training facilities in Iraq. Plus by invading Iraq he gave him the break he needed to regroup and reorganize.

27. How absolutely OBVIOUS....
if they are our enemy...wouldn't that be one of their objectives?

Fox...taking common sense and making it seem like earth shattering revelations...


However....that said...it doesn't mean American citizens should lose their rights...

29. Oh, come on. First of all there is no way anyone is going to get
into the White House to actually do this and second of all, isn't it just assumed by anyone with a shred of grey matter that this would be a desire of al-Qaeda?

Good try, Faux, but this "news" doesn't make me embrace spying on Americans without a warrant.

31. I want Bush to live a long, horrible life in shame in prison.
Cheney too. All of those bastards actually. Assassination would let them off too easily.

Besides, I think it's a fake Karl Rove story designed to get people to rally around the President against the evil-doing Moooslims!

32. Unfortunately
trying to cry wolf about some alleged assasination attempt will do nothing to garner any sympathy for **


Nice try, though. Gotta give 'em credit for consistency. How much you wanna bet Osama will come out of his hidey-hole (the Lincoln bedroom) and we'll see another tape real soon.........???????

33. Getting Bush out defeats the purpose of overthrowing the tyranny
Bush is a mere puppet to PNAC. If Bush either resigns, dies, or is impeached and convicted, the real power comes to formal power: Tricky Dick Cheney.

We have to put Cheney away somehow: either by impeaching and convicting him first or along with Bush as an unprecedented double impeachment.

40. *rotfl* ~ exactly!! He's the safest man in the world!
They are so childish!! All their federal fairy tales have been debunked, like the Jessica Lynch story, eg. I think they lost their PR firm. Even when they were paying millions of dollars for the lies we were told they were still so obvious to anyone with a brain.

They're desperate to try to justify spying on the American people. Karl must have called Fox and asked them to tell us this little fairy tale!

I bet he's calling Wolfie right now, and Paula et al. Does he really think we out here are that stupid?

The funny thing is Freepers will be apoplectic over this 'breaking news' ~ but their numbers are shrinking rapidly!! They really are getting desperate. Cheney was threatening people yesterday who might be talking about them spying on the American people!!

I was just thinking, being that I CAN think, unlike the Freeps. If there is a guy dreaming about getting Bush in the WH, somewhere out there in the world, how would spying on Catholics in the US who help the poor, protect Bush from this mythical guy? Maybe I'm just not smart enough to figure that out! :rofl:
