An image making the rounds on the doomsday boards, posted a couple days ago:

This image has been around for weeks. . .

Well, over the last two weeks, anyway. Ever since they captured the South African (nominally) woman in McAllen, Texas with a fruadulent passport and couldn't ignore the fact that she admitted crossing the river.

How do you say wetback in Arabic?

Perhaps some enterprising reporter will ask Kerry why he has refused to take any more White House press briefings and hasn't received one regarding the latest AQ threat'

Kerry's Intelligence Deficiency By The Prowler
Published 7/12/2004 12:09:32 AM


THANKS, BUT NO THANKS
While reporters have made much of Sen. John Kerry's decision to pass up a security and intelligence briefing and instead prep for a political fundraiser in New York, it hasn't been the first time, according to sources at the Central Intelligence Agency, the National Security Agency and the Senate Intelligence Committee. In fact, Kerry hasn't been taking regular intelligence briefings for weeks.

"He's just not taking them. They have been offered by the Administration, we've offered, given everything that is going on," says an Intelligence Committee staffer. "But his campaign hasn't expressed any interest. I don't know how many he has had, but I bet it's fewer than one a week. And it's not like he is ever here." President Bush is known to take at least one formal intelligence briefing in the morning, with additional meetings during the day as needed.

Last week Kerry declined an intelligence briefing on the day that Homeland Security officials briefed both the House and the Senate on possible terrorist threats. Kerry, in New York for a fundraiser, passed up a full briefing, and instead had a shave and trim of his silver mane of hair he was so proud of when he boasted on Tuesday that he and his new prospective running mate, Sen. John Edwards, had better hair than their Republican opponents.

"If we're talking about the same intelligence that got us into this war in Iraq, why would we listen to them?" asks a Kerry campaign source. "The Senator has his own intelligence and security advisers who brief him regularly. This is just more political gamesmanship, and we aren't going to play."

Just heard Barry Farmer on the radio talking about the story in the Tombstone Tumbleweed and the "OTMs" Ragheads and the Border Patrol Desk jockeys telling the patrolmen on the line that they they are not allowed to confirm that they were ARABS.

"If we're talking about the same intelligence that got us into this war in Iraq, why would we listen to them?" asks a Kerry campaign source. "The Senator has his own intelligence and security advisers who brief him regularly. This is just more political gamesmanship, and we aren't going to play."

What an arrogant SOB POS Kerry is.

Why would islamic terrorists take a break on Sunday?
****

Most people are off on Sundays, you don't have the moving masses that you have on a week morn. or lunch hour or commute home. I don't live in NYC but there is a vast difference between the street traffic and store traffic in my area. Gets quieter on the weekend. Gears up again on Monday. Just a guess on my part. Have we ever been hit on a weekend?

[KevinDavis]

What bounce???

[KevinDavis]

Reed Alert!

[nuconvert]

Oh, Sunday here. Sorry. I read about the church bombing in Iraq. Sunday in Iraq doesn't mean much. Gotcha.

[glock rocks]

neca eos omnes, deus suos agnoscet.

arrgghh.

I just got back from a trip past one of the targets mentioned in today's press conference . . .

Without going into much detail, I'll just post one key observation here. From the looks of it (and from the actions of LEOs on the scene), I'd say it doesn't seem as if the "specific threat" involves a car or truck bomb.

I'm really itching to know about the exact nature of this threat.
