Sorry for the vanity post, but I was just counting the money in my wallet when I started to sneeze. Then it hit me: The terrorists are going to use our money against us!
We all know how badly infested our paper money is normally. We don't really want to know where that dollar bill has been, thank you. But how many of us remember the Secret Service busting several groups of Iraqis over the last ten years for printing many millions in fake US paper currency? What has been the premise all along of our Russian "partners"? Remember how they said that "Get rid of your dollars - very soon they will be worthless"? And who can forget Osama's main target on 9/11 - the WTC was seen as the financial hub of our nation? All along it has been the camelhumper's main issue with not only us, but the Israelis as well - we're ALL RICH in their eyes. They're jealous about the MONEY!! It's the money that makes us the demons to them, that's why they went to places like Las Vegas to see us at what they think is our worst or most decadent while getting up the righteous indignation to fly into the buildings.
So you take this mindset of theirs, and combine it with the biological and/or chemical weapons of Saddam's Iraq. It doesn't take a GED to figure out that the perfect way to spread death as well as financial ruin on America is though our currency. Think of the damage - how many other nations use the dollar as the benchmark for their own currencies? This is a terrorist's wet dream. I know about loose lips sinking ships - but the FBI hasn't mentioned something this logical as a threat. It makes too much sense. If you think that this post is giving ideas to the enemy, I'm afraid that the cows have already left the barn - I'm just trying to tell everyone so the door can be shut before the mad cows come back in. If you think about it for a minute or two, you'll get concerned enough to agree with me.
Wow, does that sound painful! Good one, W! It may also be the explanation as to WhyaTexasgirlhadtomovetoPA...
By the way, if you thought that was going to sucker me into making some crude stupid remark aboot your spreading ass, think again, sister...
