George W. Bush’s poll numbers are mired in the 20s, so he releases the hounds hoping to terrify the populace into rallying to him in fear:
Calling it “a gut feeling” based on past patterns of terrorists in Europe, recent al-Qaeda statements and intelligence he did not disclose, Chertoff said of terrorists: “Summertime seems to be appealing to them. … We worry that they are rebuilding their activities.”
A recent terror plot in London and Scotland has America’s defense system on alert, Chertoff said. He urged Americans to be attentive if something appears suspicious. But he said there is an assessment “not of a specific threat, but of increased vulnerability.”
Just an excuse for and a prelude to martial law–get ready folks.
something appears damn suspicious all right, the behavior of the mass media and the American politicians.
Wave that false flag, wave it wide and high.
Sgt. Joe Friday can work off a hunch … Not the chief of fatherland security!
I got a hunch rove is behind this one. . .
A GUT FEELING???
Sheeszch…
This guy is the top dog in making Americans feel secure???
I’d move away if I thought some other country was safe from the multi-national corps running things.
Ireland? They threw out the DREs after one screwed election…
Meanwhile DREs helped elect (who else?) the conservative friends-of-Bush candidates in France, Mexico, and Lawd knows where else…
shw
You would have a gut feeling too if you just had lunch with Cheney as Chertoff did.
Cheney, biting the head off a little bird and drinking its blood, made a gut bomb go off in Chertoff’s tummy as he chewed his cud across the table.
He misunderestimated it as a terrorist threat.
And those ABC AM radio news briefs, coordinated with Paul Harvey’s news briefs (always in synch, Paul Harvey is on ABC news radio), “prepare us” for what’s coming.
ABC News Radio News Briefs: “All terror, all the time”. They always lead off with a scarey terror blurb. Keep all the idiots scared.
Maybe he knows about the housing market…
Foreclosures Up 6 Percent in May 2007 …This also marks a 38% increase in foreclosure listing activity compared to November 2006.
Here is the prayer of every Republican:
“O please Lord, let there be a HUGE terror attack on the United States! I don’t care how many people get killed so long as it hurts the Democrats! Jesus is Lord and God bless America. Amen.”
Miss Larisa said that the literal translation for Chertoff in Russian is; “of/to the devil”

I just discovered this forum today – and have found the comments made here and commentary given both interesting and insightful on many fronts. One that I find lacking is a deeper understanding in exactly what this “War on Terror” to be about. One thing that I have found missing in many of the comment (and retorts for or against them) is a mention of the jihad which can substantially be credited as the true issue at hand. I did serve in the military, but that in not of consequence here. And I was born and raised in Texas, and have not lived in the Middle East, which is why I do not claim the personally be an expert on matters there. Instead – I challenge any who read this to listen to the words of a true expert. Dr. Walid Phares is a man of amazing insight into what is really going on in the Middle East, and has been for generations. He can be counted as an expert in that he is originally from Lebanon, grew up there, was schooled at the University of Beirut (before going on to earn degrees from other Universities) and has been called in to educate the forums of committees of the State, Justice, Defense and Homeland Security Departments, the US Congress, the European Parliament, the United Nations Security Council – and is also a regular guest on just about every network around – NBC, Fox News, ABC, CBS, PBS,BBC, Al Hurra TV, France 24, Al Jazeera, Al Arabiya News programs. I’ve included a couple of links below to talks he gave on what he holds to be the truth behind the situation at hand. I urge you to listen to them, and would love remarks and thoughts by any willing to do so here, or to be emailed to me at markdanielmiller@yahoo.com. FYI – the links only appear to work in Internet Explorer. I tried them in Firefox (by FAR my browser of choice 🙂 – but to no avail. I look forward to your thoughts! 🙂
