WTF!??? Call me a conspiracy nutcase or whatever, but in my SPIRIT, I have felt he is being defeated by the demons, although he may not realize it. Even with his immigration policy [NONE] he is in big trouble with me and a lot of others. I doubt him more every day with his globalist ideals and his naivity about our enemies.
MHO of course...
I felt it today, after reading that article.
Hip deep in google searches as a result.
Also, during the holidays there was a flight from Philadelphia to London that did a u-turn about 3+ hours into the flight, and returned to the Philadelphia airport. I don't recall if there was any follow-up info. regarding why they returned.

I'm not sure all is right with the site. Reads to me to be a conspiracy site, which will skew the information. If other more valid links/sites provide confimatory info, I'd not get ramped up yet.
Thank you for your posts and work.
No idea. Faded back into the woodwork I suppose.
Chertoff's tenure at the Justice Department included high-profile cases that his criminal division either lost or that have yet to be resolved:
- The collapse in Detroit of the first post-Sept. 11 prosecution of an alleged terrorist sleeper cell. The charges were thrown out because of misconduct by prosecutors.
- The case of a Saudi college student in Boise, Idaho, who was acquitted for lack of evidence on charges he created an Internet network that prosecutors claimed fostered Islamic extremism and helped recruit potential terrorists.
- The still-incomplete prosecution of Zacarias Moussaoui, the only U.S. defendant charged in an al-Qaida conspiracy that includes the Sept. 11 attacks.
So why would some back-water article about a car disguised as a patrol car, with a man dressed in a uniform following school buses go missing! Hmmmmm...glad that with some of these articles I post a good portion of the info., just in case it "goes missing".

WASHINGTON - Metropolitan Police disposed of a suspicious package near the intersection of 18th and L Streets, NW, Wednesday morning, but not before the incident turned into a major traffic headache.
A restaurant owner alerted police to the package just after 10 a.m. Authorities later detonated the package, which was inside one of those boxes filled with apartment guides....
100+ Displaced After Explosion in High Rise (D.C. - 1/12/05)
Updated: Wednesday, Jan. 12, 2005 - 11:45 AM
WASHINGTON - Investigators believe a build-up of natural gas is what led to the deadly blast and fire at an 11-story high rise in Southeast.
But they say they may never know exactly what led up to the explosion that left more than 100 people displaced Wednesday morning at the Marbury Plaza Apartments in the 2,300 block of Good Hope Road, SE.
"There was a tremendous explosion inside this building. It has obliterated three or four apartments. It has obliterated a laundry room," says D.C. Fire and EMS spokesman Alan Etter.
Officer Hit by Stolen Car Badly Injured at Pentagon (D.C. - 1/11/05)
ASSOCIATED PRESS A Pentagon police officer was fighting for his life after being run down by a stolen car, authorities said. Officer James Feltis, 41, was in very critical condition last night, Pentagon spokesman Glenn Flood said.
"He was on duty... and saw the vehicle coming the wrong way on what's known as Rotary Road. Apparently, he tried to stop the vehicle and was struck. He was thrown up in the air and came down to hit the back of the car, then hit the ground," Pentagon police Chief Richard Keevill said.
Alexandria Police Lt. John Crawford said the driver was moving at a "pretty good clip" when he hit Officer Feltis. The trouble began about 4 miles south of the Pentagon in Alexandria, on the fringes of Old Town, where city police said a 65-year-old Maryland man was getting into his 2002 Cadillac when a carjacker ordered him out. Alexandria police later found the car and chased it into Arlington County, then north onto Interstate 395. The driver got off at the Pentagon, where Officer Feltis was hit, but kept driving until an Alexandria police car rammed the Cadillac a short distance away.
"When the [Virginia] State Police, Pentagon police and Alexandria police attempted to arrest him, there was a scuffle, and the suspect got possession of the Alexandria officer's gun," said Amy Bertsch, an Alexandria police spokeswoman. "And the suspect fired multiple shots and injured himself."
Police were still trying to confirm the suspect's identity late yesterday. His injuries are not considered life-threatening. The man who was carjacked was taken to the hospital as a precaution but was not seriously hurt, authorities said.
Three Commercial Vans Stolen in Eureka Overnight (CA - 1/12/05)
Three commercial vans were stolen in Eureka last night. The Eureka Police Department said that after 5 p.m. yesterday, a Federal Express van was stolen from the company’s parking lot in Eureka.
At 3 a.m. today, the EPD responded to the 2900 block of H Street to a report of a hit-and-run that involved the stolen vehicle. Police said they believe the van’s driver, before driving away, apparently couldn’t miss a parked car and drove the van into it.
Two other commercial vans were also stolen from the same area last night, but they were recovered early this morning. Police are still looking for the Fed Express van with a number of 208756. Its license plate number is 4Z30151.
Anyone who knows where the missing van is should contact the Eureka Police Department at (707) 441-4060.

12 January 2005 KARACHI: An Islamic militant detained for an assassination attempt on President Pervez Musharraf a year ago has escaped military custody while in a bathroom to wash before early morning prayers, Pakistani security sources say.
Mushtaq Ahmed had been sentenced to death in late November for his role in the plot to kill Musharraf, who is also chief of army staff, said one security official. No official announcement has been made on his trial....
Well, it may be a legitimate reason and the situation is resolved.
I don't know.
It could be they were asked to pull it.
I just don't know.
By Ted Bridis The Associated Press Published: Jan 12, 2005 WASHINGTON (AP) - A hacker broke into a wireless carrier's network over at least seven months and read e-mails and personal computer files of hundreds of customers, including the Secret Service agent investigating the hacker, the government said Wednesday.
The hacker obtained an internal Secret Service memorandum and part of a mutual assistance legal treaty from Russia. The documents contained "highly sensitive information pertaining to ongoing ... criminal cases," according to court records.
The break-in targeted the network for Bellevue, Wash.-based T-Mobile USA, which has 16.3 million customers in the United States. It was discovered during a broad Secret Service investigation, "Operation Firewall," which targeted underground hacker organizations known as Shadowcrew, Carderplanet and Darkprofits.
Nicolas Lee Jacobsen, 21, of Santa Ana, Calif., a computer engineer, has been charged with the break-in in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles. Investigators said they traced the hacker's online activities to a hotel in Williamsport, N.Y., where Jacobsen was staying.....
That's not good.
I vaguely remember the Dateline interview about this guy.
Not getting ramped up, but certainly doing some digging.
Joining you in prayer.
Goodnight, AD.
Snippet from article in post no. 2335:

Jacobsen, who was arrested in October in California, has been released on a $25,000 bond posted by his uncle, who was ordered to keep his own personal computer locked up so Jacobsen couldn't us"
If you saw this Sunday's "24" show on Fox, you have to wonder if the writers were telepathic.
Hard to tell the quantity and quality of security communications the hacker was privy to. Time will tell.
It's a baptism by fire for Michael Chetoff with the resignation of Robert Liscouski, Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary for Infrastructure Protection and this gaping hole in security communications.
