COLCHESTER, Conn. -- A church in Colchester was leveled by an explosion Friday morning. St. Mary's Ukrainian Church on Route 16, also known as Linwood Ave., was flattened by the explosion just before 7 a.m., according to state police. State police spokesman, Sgt. J. Paul Vance, said the area had been cordoned off and the highway was shut down in both directions. Vance said there was no initial report of injuries and there was no immediate indication of what caused the explosion. The state fire marshal was called to the scene as well utility company crews.

If this was a Mosque would we be hearing more about it from the MSM?

Yeah, he's diabolical. The BIG SECRET (shhhh!) is that Karl Rove has a private lab where in the late 1990s he perfected time travel. He actually PLANTED those faked documents by going BACK IN TIME. He's also the one who talked Kerry into enhancing his after-action reports and associating with Marxists and other liars to get his DD (which was relieved by Jimmy Carter's admin; another Rove idea). ;')

Imagine if Kerry had Rove's machine, the stuff he could change... voting against the UN-approved international alliance to force Saddam out of Kuwait... voting in favor of the US-led alliance to liberate Iraq without UN approval... to advocate doing so with or without UN approval... saying the Fence in Israel was a threat to peace, then saying it was a necessity...
George W. Bush will be reelected by a margin of at least ten per cent

Newsflash- you're no longer considered part of the tin foil hat brigade when you suspect that Russian church explosion might be terrorism.

The site of the destroyed church and roads leading up to it were quickly cordoned off and remain blocked to the public.

QUESTION: *IF* this were the work of Islam, WILL WE EVER KNOW IT?

Rationale: Mosques would begin to disappear like ice on the 4th of July.

We have a Ukranian exchange student living with us for the school year. She is very anti-Bush and according to her, many, many Ukranians are as well. Their main issue is that there were no weapons of mass destruction found after they heard President Bush guarantee it.

They have an election upcoming this year...soon, but I'm not sure when...she says that the people are going to make it a referendum on the current president's support of the war in Iraq and his deployment of Ukranian troops to the region.

If it's the same church I'm thinking of, my grandmother is a parishoner there. Thankfully, no one was apparently hurt.

"All that remained of St. Mary's Ukrainian Catholic Church was a statue of the Virgin Mary ... "

Mary stands the test of time - forever.

So when are we going to hear Bill Clinton condemn this travesty, like he condemned all the phantom church burnings in the south?

This happens much more, and I'm going to be thinking government conspiracy to keep our political impotence and vulnerability at home quiet and out of the news.
