It appears Kordell is the last of that dying breed...

To those who thought Moose was a fool--he ain't
The Maryland cop is ebullient
But his top prize-the slammer
Not so, Alabama
Where death ain't unusual or cruel-ient

[lds23]

I hate to be contrary to the ebulience over catching the sniper, but What did chief Moose know and when did he know it?

[NeoCaveman]

It appears Kordell is the last of that dying breed...

LOL.

[white rose]

My sentiments on the sniper arrest echo those in post #12. Stories like this make me wonder if this is the beginning of the end of this frightening episode, or merely the end of the beginning.

However, if they have indeed nabbed the right guys, we can all still feel decidedly ebullient!

[NeoCaveman]

I am hoping that our ebullience at the capture of is not premature and that they are the extent of the threat, not just a portion of it.

Looking like terrorism, or maybe we should change the term to something more accurate, like asymetric warfare.

[hobbes1]

Speaking of Ass Y metric warfare, the Commie post looks like its back to its pre watergate take down the Republican President days.

The Headline spells out Illegal Activity, but yet, I wonder if the the Post ever Covered the WHO DB.

[xsmommy]

it's very hard to keep track of this. i read somewhere on here that there were warnings issued to 50 different cities to be on the lookout for something this weekend? unsettling. i started out being relieved this AM but that is kind of dissipating.

[doubled]

The dems are really ebullient
With the latest Gephardt stunt.
You wanted a plan?
Well, then, here it am
But the economy it will stunt.

[NeoCaveman]

I hate the CommiePost

[NeoCaveman]

i started out being relieved this AM but that is kind of dissipating.

The DC part could be over but, it shows us a larger problem.... and it that there are a lot more, Johnny Talibans, like Walker-Lindh, Jose Padilla, and John Muhhamed.

[hobbes1]

Repeal all laws, in all states, that run counter to the Second Amendment.

Let these @$$holes run around trying to commit jihad in among a populace that is armed to the teeth, and as twitchy as four year old after a double espresso.

[NeoCaveman]

I agree.

The Second Ammendment is the ultimate and original Homeland Defense.

[hobbes1]

Yup

[CholeraJoe]

as twitchy as four year old after a double espresso.

[NeoCaveman]

Good morning Mistress Bella,

Homework.

My ebullience is restrained as more details come out about John Allen Muhhammed.

Men named in sniper probe reportedly sympathetic to terrorists
